And did you use hard or soft wheat? Thanks. You said you halved the recipe (18 balls) so does that mean usually you get 36? And did you use hard or soft wheat? Thanks.

The most inexpensive rolling tool to get the job done is one inch wooden dowels. We used ones that were between four and six inches long. These work great.

With flour tortillas as you are making here the only choice is to roll it out. But that is really fast to do. I find the big sweeping motion of a rolling pin much faster to use, but I love your creative use of “what ever I have on hand” tools.

The whole wheat tortillas dry out easy so keeping them in a heavy plastic bag really helps.

Yummy food!

She adds a twist, that I think is fun. She changes them by adding different ingredients in place of the water. For example, she might add either spinach (frozen or fresh) or tomatoes (canned or sauce), she might add seasonings also (herbs or sun-dried tomatoes.) This not only looks neat, but add a different flavor and more nutrition.<br>Thanks, Connie Dear Julie,

Just wrap them in plastic or wax paper and keep them like bread. They tend to go hard in the freezer unless vacuum packed. You can make a smaller batch. Just cut the recipe down.

Could I freeze them, do you think? Thanks for any advice--I'm trying this next week and we can't use 18 tortillas at a time...well, my husband might be able to...
