Ingredients:
- 2 cups gluten-free masa harina (certified GF, such as Bob’s Red Mill or Maseca)
- 1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
- 1 1/2 to 2 cups warm water (start with less, add more as needed)
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, mix together the gluten-free masa harina and salt.
- Gradually add in the warm water, stirring continuously until the dough comes together. It should be firm and springy, not sticky or dry. Adjust the water as needed.
- Divide the dough into small balls about the size of a golf ball.
- Place a dough ball between two pieces of parchment paper or plastic from a zip-top bag. Use a tortilla press or rolling pin to flatten the dough into a thin circle.
- Heat a dry skillet or griddle over medium-high heat.
- Carefully peel the tortilla from the plastic or paper and place it onto the hot skillet. Cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute per side, or until the surface begins to show brown spots and the edges start to curl up slightly.
- Remove the tortilla from the skillet and keep it wrapped in a clean kitchen towel to stay warm and pliable.
- Repeat with the remaining dough balls.
- Serve warm with your favorite fillings.
