TOOLS and GADGETS
- Mixing Bowls and Measuring Cups
- Parchment Paper or silicon mat
- Rolling Pin
- 8 or 9 inch round lid of pot that has somewhat sharp edges. Only if you want perfectly round tortillas,
- Shallow Skillet ans a spatula to turn
TIPS and SUBSTITUTION
- You can use coconut flour instead of oat fiber if you want the tortillas grain free
- You can skip both chia and psyllium husk by increasing the flax seed amount. Tortillas may be a little less flexible
- Roll them as thin as possible, it will not break.
- Add any flavor to the tortillas, like paprika, mint, oregano, even chili peppers
- You can make taco shells or taco bowls.
- For shells, spray them with avocado oil and hang them like laundry over the oven shelves and bake them 5-10 mins at 400 oven
- For bowls spray an oven safe bowl with avocado oil and press the tortilla inside and bake them in the oven 10-15 mins on the middle rack at 400
- You can cut them into triangles and fry them in ghee, lard or coconut oil to make tortilla chips
- Make sure your chia is fresh, somehow chia gets bitter as it gets stale and it will be more prominent when ground.
- Some brands of psyllium husk turns the dough purple when baked or cooked. The taste will be same but your tortillas will look funky.
