A Tortilla Press for Your Kitchen
A tortilla press is a workhorse in any busy Mexican kitchen. Tortilla presses are used to make corn tortillas quickly and uniformly. The dough or masa is pressed between two plates to form the tortilla.
The tortilla press in the photo is made of metal but you will also find presses made of wood. Tortilla presses are available in many stores that sell specialty cookware.
Nothing beats fresh tortillas, hot off the comal. If you prepare Mexican food regularly, you will want to have a tortilla press in your kitchen.
