Sarbloh Corn Tortillas

Homemade Corn Tortillas Recipe

(makes about 12 tortillas)

Ingredients:

• 2 cups masa harina (corn flour for tortillas, NOT cornmeal)

• 1 ½ cups warm water (adjust as needed)

• ½ tsp salt

Instructions:

1. Mix Dough
   In a bowl, combine masa harina and salt. Add warm water gradually and knead until a soft dough forms. It shouldn't be sticky or dry—think Play-Doh texture.

2. Rest
   Cover dough with a damp towel and let it rest for 20–30 minutes to fully hydrate.

3. Divide and Shape
   Divide dough into 12 balls. Keep them covered while working. Use a tortilla press (or roll between two sheets of parchment with a rolling pin) to flatten each ball into a thin round (about 5 - 6 inches wide).

4. Cook
   Heat a cast-iron skillet or non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Cook each tortilla for about:

   • 30 seconds on first side

   • 1 minute on second side

30 more seconds on first side again (should puff slightly)

Stack cooked tortillas in a clean kitchen towel to keep warm and soft.
