    Julie, if I were to stick these in the fridge, how long do you think they'd last? Could I freeze them, do you think? Thanks for any advice--I'm trying this next week and we can't use 18 tortillas at a time...well, my husband might be able to...

    Devon, I make a lot of homemade tortillas and I don't refrigerate the leftovers at all. Just wrap them in plastic or wax paper and keep them like bread. They tend to go hard in the freezer unless vacuum packed. You can make a smaller batch. Just cut the recipe down.

    Dear Julie,
    My daughter makes tortillas often. She adds a twist, that I think is fun. She changes them by adding different ingredients in place of the water. For example, she might add either spinach (frozen or fresh) or tomatoes (canned or sauce), she might add seasonings also (herbs or sun-dried tomatoes.) This not only looks neat, but add a different flavor and more nutrition.
    Thanks, Connie

    The tortilla press is for corn tortillas' the dough is soft (made of masa) and when pressed between 2 pieces of a plastic freezer bag it makes a perfect circle. You pull off the plastic gently before putting on the griddle.

    With flour tortillas as you are making here the only choice is to roll it out. But that is really fast to do. I find the big sweeping motion of a rolling pin much faster to use, but I love your creative use of "what ever I have on hand" tools.

    The whole wheat tortillas dry out easy so keeping them in a heavy plastic bag really helps.

    Yummy food!
