Instructions
- 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the masa harina and salt. Add 1 1/2 cups warm water and mix with your hands until a smooth, pliable dough forms — it should feel like soft Play-Doh and not crack at the edges when pressed. If the dough is too dry, add warm water 1 tablespoon at a time. Let the dough rest for 10 minutes, covered with a damp towel.

Divide the dough into 8 equal balls (about 2 oz / 55g each). Place one ball between two sheets of plastic wrap and press with a tortilla press or the flat bottom of a heavy pan to a round about 4 inches wide and 1/4 inch thick. Repeat with the remaining balls.
