Chef's Notes
Treat your masa like royalty and it will reward you with pliability that defies the laws of physics. Never let the dough dry out.
Pro Tip
Always use a thermometer for your water. Too hot and you cook the starch; too cold and your dough fractures like ancient pottery.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Dropping your freshly pressed tortilla into a puddle of stray grease on the stovetop and watching it instantly morph into a tragic, greasy potato chip.
The Jester's Corner
