Does anyone have any recipes or suggestions for online ordering for homemade tortillas? Thanks!
Homemade tortillas?

As you may expect, tortillas are VERY important here. For almost every meal, each person gets three corn tortillas on the side. Here's how they are made here:
Tortillas Ingredients for Corn Tortillas
Note: If you add a little salt, achiote, and a little vegetable shortening to the corn tortilla recipe, or just a little vegetable shortening to the flour tortilla recipe, then fold the circles of dough into half-moon shapes around a filling of seasoned ground beef or chicken, seal them, then deep fry them, you'll have Pastelitos - one of the absolutely delicious, typical street-vendor foods that usually sell for about 35 or 40 cents each. YUM! P.S.: If you do "online ordering," they're not really homemade - are they?
If blueberry muffins have blueberries in them, what do vegan muffins have?
"If you do "online ordering," they're not really homemade - are they?" - why I'm still pondering a response for Carole.

Thanks - the recipe looks great!! Actually asking the homemade online ordering question gave me pause, but I couldn't figure out how else to ask - maybe fresh versus manufactured would be more accurate?
Although I adore homemade corn tortillas, I've not had much luck in making them. In fact, I have a bag of corn masa that has been in a plastic bag, in the freezer, for about 6 years (since my last failed attempt).
Labs, your recipe is now copied and waiting for a day when I'm feeling lucky (in the culinary sense). Would the corn masa still be okay to use?
Carole, the funny thing is that homemade ones I see here, every day, are often rounder and more consistent than the commercially produced ones sold in the stores! LO!
Vicci, I don't know about the six-year question. Presumably the freezer should prevent anything harmful from growing, as long as it was fresh when it was put into the freezer. Otherwise, any grain or flour products that are kept OUT of the freezer for too long can develop certain molds (esp. varieties of aflatoxin-producing aspergillus) that can be dangerous to people with allergies to molds.
