Taco Tuesday just got a makeover.

For those of us for whom the closest thing to authentic Mexican food comes pre-packaged in the grocery store, this DIY Tortilla Kit will open your eyes (and mouth) to how good corn tortillas can really taste.

The kit contains an 8" tortilla press to get your tortillas the perfect thinness (much better than just smushing with your bare hands), a hand-woven straw basket and lid for keeping your tortillas warm at the table, a bag of Maseca corn tortilla mix (the authentic stuff! And enough to make about 12 tortillas), and a bag each of Chile Ancho, Chile Guajillo, and Chile Pequin to optionally give your tortillas some smoke or heat. Dream up some wacky taco fillings to debut with your fresh tortillas, or start with a dead-simple classic (carnitas!)

Imusa 8" Tortilla Press

Woven Straw Tortilla Basket-Classic (Hand-woven, no two are alike)

Maseca Corn Tortilla Mix

Chile Ancho (2 ounces), Chile Guajillo (2 ounces), Chile Pequin (0.5 ounces)

  • Made in: U.S.A. and Mexico

Latin America may be just be a short plane ride away, but it's often easier to find authentic European delicacies than a steaming cup of Mexican hot chocolate or perfect flour tortillas. No more: Melissa Guerra is our saving grace. Even better -- her supplies come from indigenous cooperatives whenever possible.
