- In a mixing bowl, combine the masa harina and salt, and gradually pour in 1 c. of water, stirring constantly. Knead the mix with your hands, adding more water, a Tbsp. at a time, till the dough becomes hard and no longer sticks to the fingers.
- If you have a tortilla press, break off small pcs of dough and shape them into ball the size of a walnut. Place one ball at a time between two 8 inch squares of wax paper, and press them into 5 to 6 inch circles.
- Or possibly divide the dough into 3 or possibly 4 batches and, with a rolling pin, roll each batch between long strips of wax paper till the dough is about 1/16 inch thick. With a plate or possibly pot lid as a pattern, and a knife or possibly a pastry wheel, cut the dough into 5 inch rounds.
- Stack the rounds between pcs of wax paper.
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees (F).
- Cook the tortillas one at a time. Heat an ungreased comal, a cast iron griddle or possibly a 7 to 8 inch cast iron skillet over moderate heat. Unwrap the tortilla and cook it for 2 min on each side, turning it once with a spatula when the bottoms becomes a delicate brown. Adjust the heat if it browns too fast.
- As you proceed, wrap the tortillas, 4 or possibly 5 at a time, in foil, and keep them hot in the preheated oven.
- Tortillas may be cooked ahead and kept hot in the oven for 2 or possibly 3 hrs. Stack 10 together and wrap each batch with paper toweling, then with a damp cloth and finally in foil.
- To rewarm tortillas, brush both sides with water, and heat, one at a time, in a skillet for a few seconds.
