Ingredients

• Corn flour

  Whole-grain, blue (harina de maiz morado)

  2 cup or 221g

• Salt

  Table

  ½ tsp or 3g

• Water

  Plain, clean water

  1 ½ cup or 355g

Directions

1. Bring water to a boil and mix with flour and salt, then cover and let rest 30 minutes.
2. Start griddle and/or pan preheating on high or medium-high. A hot pan is desired so as to create little burn marks on the tortillas.
3. Shape into balls about the size of a ping-pong ball
4. Cover tortilla press plates with plastic wrap or cut a freezer bag into two parts so the dough can be pressed between the plastic and easily peeled off. If the tortilla is too thick, cut a piece of cardboard and place it on the base plate of the press.
5. Cook tortillas.
