Looking to take your homemade Mexican dinners to the next level? It's time to invest in a tortilla press. According to Mexican-American chef and creator of the blog Lola's Cocina, Lola Wiarco Dweck, it's the key to getting flat, even tortillas at home. "I use a tortilla press quite often," she says. "It allows me to make perfectly round corn tortillas as well as some of the sweet toppings for some of my Mexican baked breads. A tortilla press offers precision in terms of shape and thickness that I have yet to perfect with a rolling pin."
Tortilla presses are wireless and heatless, and usually made from cast iron or wood. Check out Lola's favorite tortilla press, plus a few more that the internet loves.
