Been making flour tortillas with the press. Fresh tortillas are amazing. Mine came with a bunch of wax papers to put between the press, but I discovered they did more harm then good. After several attempts I settled on a yeast based flour tortilla recipe which I spice up with mild chili powder. Press to shape and then roll it out to size. 60 second later in a piping hot pan and you have a tortilla. Those wax papers come in handy to separate them in the freezer.

My press came pre seasoned, but I think it can do with a few more layers. What are your tips for making tortillas?

Yeast… In a tortilla? What in the Midwest hell?

I have never had a tortilla made with yeast nor do I want to. Change recipes those things look like fuckin pancakes. Masa is superior for pretty much everything that isn’t tex-mex as well.
