Comment on How to Make Corn Tortillas by Tracy.

Hi – Thank you for the recipe. My husband and I LOVE mexican food and this post is the tipping point for me to finally get a tortilla press. Question: How to store these tortillas for later use and how long can I store them without compromising texture/flavor? Thanks!

How to Make Corn Tortillas
Hi Malcolm: I finally got around to making these, and you’re right! It’s so super simple for the reward of amazing fresh corn tortillas. I ate them with homemade huevos rancheros one lazy sunday morning, and had them again for dinner with ground beef tacos. I will never go back to store-bought again! One comment – you mentioned using 2 cups of water to 1 and 1/4 cup of masa. I found the directions on that Maseca brand to indicate 2/3 cup of water to 1 cup of masa, which worked perfectly for me. Thanks for inspiring me to make my own tortillas!
