"The Perfect Tortilla"

"The Perfect Tortilla" refers to a specific technique for making a flatbread with ideal texture, flavor, and flexibility. It involves choosing high-quality, nixtamalized corn or wheat flour, kneading the dough thoroughly, and resting it to develop gluten and flavor. When cooking, preheat a skillet until hot, then cook the tortilla evenly on each side until lightly browned. The goal is a soft, pliable tortilla that is neither too dry nor too chewy, enhancing its ability to hold fillings and complement other dishes. Mastering this technique results in a traditional, authentic tortilla with excellent taste and texture.
