Making our own corn tortillas is a fun family activity; my twin boys like to mix the masa and water together, while my girls like to press the dough into tortillas and cook them. Use homemade tortillas for chicken fajitas, black bean tacos, or Fish Tacos. Be sure to purchase organic masa harina to avoid consuming genetically engineered food.
Ingredients
