Ultimate Tortilla Press Cookbook - Recipes for All Kinds of Make-Your-Own Tortillas--and for Burrito

I received a DIGITAL Advance Reader Copy of this book from #NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. From the publisher The DIY kitchen trend takes a Southwestern and Mexican spin in this creative book that covers how to use, clean, and maintain a tortilla press and serves up 125 recipes for a lifetime of enjoying it. Thirty of the recipes are for every kind of tortilla imaginable--corn, flour, or gluten-free; and plain or flavored with all sorts of good things, from chile peppers or tomatoes to avocado or lime. The remaining 95 recipes are a feast of things to do with the freshly made tortillas, ranging from burritos and enchiladas to tacos, quesadillas, and beyond. Focus: Creative recipes for DIY-minded home cooks include 30 kinds of tortillas, along with over 90 recipes using them. The only book on the subject for owners of manual or electric tortilla presses DIY in the kitchen is steadily growing, and Tex-Mex is easy and healthy and the author is former food editor at the Dallas Morning News.

This book made me so hungry---the fact that it is minus 37 outside made me want warm yumminiess on the page and in my stomach. I do not own a tortilla press (I know I can get one at MennoMex, my local Mennonite-Mexican store) and "made do" with two cast iron pans and pressing them by hand. I made some sweet ones for my morning meeting's snack time and savoury ones for dinner: I even snuck some veggies into the dough and no one even suspected it! What a cute little book with yummy recipes --- I LOVE cheese and these are the perfect vessel! Yum!
