Hominy, hominy ground in a corona mill, tortilla in the new press, fried tortillas |
Sometimes, a new tool can make all the difference. We recently bought a cast iron tortilla press. After the first tortilla, Melissa was convinced we should have gotten one years ago. The tortilla was a beautiful perfect circle and the right thickness. But most important, the press was really quick and even the younger kids could help with great results. While we enjoy cooking our heirloom white corn into hominy fairly often, making tortillas was more for special occasions. The press has made it possible for homemade tortillas to be more of a staple for us, including frying tortilla chips after the day old extras. (The press was just $20 at Compare Foods in Statesville.)
