So tell us, how do you make a tortilla out of Masa Harina? I love tortillas and I’d love to have some “makings” in my emergency supplies. Thanks.

The directions are on the package, basically it is just a five pound bag of Masa, just like a five pound bag of four is, and you take some of the Masa, and mix it with water, flatten it, and heat it on a skillet, flipping it back and fourth to get those little brown spots.

The pre-mixed Masa Harina in the refrigerated section of the grocery store, is supposed to be a little better.

Think I might have to try this myself:

Found this recipe for homemade tortillas (and chips)

Also found this recipe for refried beans

Although I think epazote might have to be found in an ethnic market - can’t recall seeing it at the local supermarket.
