Soft tacos are a new fav for me the past year, and I have been trying my hand at various tortilla recipes – and this is the one that has stuck around longest amongst all of them (remember, I have habit of not repeating recipes at home!).
This one is an easy dough in terms of kneading and rolling out and cooking. I have hand rolled them, and I have used a tortilla press as well which means there is flexibility in the recipe to do as you wish – which is right up my lane!
What do I do w these tortillas? Fill with salads, beans, cheeses… or make a Lebanese version with hummus, falafel balls… or a sweet version with chocolate, bananas, strawberries… oh yummy!
You can also grill these into quesadillas or burrito wraps.
Storage note: after you make the tortillas, keep them stored in a cloth casserole to maintain it’s softness.
