Product Description
Homemade tortillas are truly a treat, and like nearly all flatbreads, not too difficult to make. Get your tortilla flat and even with this simple manual press. This could be one element of a fabulous "flavors of the Southwest" gift basket.

Amazon.com Review
This traditional press allows home cooks to make corn tortillas that are superior to the mass-produced product found in supermarkets from Oaxaca to Cheyenne. Simply follow the easy recipe included with the press, roll up a ball of dough, press it down lightly with your fingertips in the center of the press, and push down the press's lever. Not only does this yield better-tasting tortillas, it's tons of fun--especially for kids. Norpro's 6-inch press is made of heavy cast aluminum polished to a chrome finish. --Fred Brack

4 out of 5 stars Tortilla pressing skills   July 4, 2008
Practice is what it takes. Once you get the hang of it the tortillas taste so good.I used heavy wax paper to line both sides of the press. Then sprayed a little pan oil spray on both side and inserted a rolled ball of corn dough. Learning how hard to press how much dough and the right mix of dough and water is the tricky part. It was really worth the trouble since the tortillas taste so fresh.


5 out of 5 stars Works well   June 19, 2008
I was making tortillas by hand, which works very well, but is tedious and time-consuming. This little gadget is wonderful and my tortillas are done in no-time. I can't cook them fast enough! Very well made, too.


1 out of 5 stars Plzzz dont buy this!!!   February 8, 2008
Hand rolling is the best guys...dont even think this is easy..Iam returning this product soon. Dint work even once!!!!


4 out of 5 stars great tortillas   January 30, 2008
This is an easy to use tortilla press. It makes great tortillas if you follow the directions. When you put the masa in the press place it closer to the hinge than the middle, and it will be round and the thickness depends on how hard you press down. It works great, and I think it will last.


4 out of 5 stars Small, handy and useful   January 25, 2008
The Norpro Cast Aluminum Tortilla Press is smaller than I expected, but still found it really useful. The best thing is it is light weight, easy to use and store. It makes beautiful, round tortillas. You need not have to give it too much pressure unless you need a really thin sheet of dough, otherwise a little press would do the trick. Over all I liked it. Infact it worked better than my expectations... these days I make a lot of whole grain wheat tortillas... with this little helper in my kitchen.
