Corn Tortillas (making)

Our natural prejudgment of reality is against God. To receive the truth of God requires that our “anti” bias be changed. The key work of the Holy Spirit in regeneration is not giving new knowledge to the brain but changing the disposition of the heart. Before the Spirit turns that heart of stone into a heart of flesh, we have no desire for the things of God. We may desire the blessings that only God can give us, but we have no affection for the things of God. At the moment of regeneration, the eyes of the heart are opened somewhat, but this is just the beginning. The whole Christian life involves an unfolding and enlarging of the heart’s openness to the things of God.

INGREDIENTS

1 1/2	c	Masa harina
1/2	c	Cornmeal
1 1/2	T	Oil
1 1/3	c	Warm water

INSTRUCTIONS

Mix all the ingredients together in a large bowl and beat with a
wooden spoon until thick and smooth. Scrape the sides of the bowl,  and
cover the surface of the dough with plastic wrap while pressing  and
frying individual tortillas so the dough will not dry out. To  form the
tortillas, wet your hands and pull off a lump of dough about  the size
of a golfball. Roll it into a ball. Tear off 2 pieces of  plastic wrap
about a foot long. Either in a tortilla press, or  between 2 dinner
plates, place the ball between the sheets of plastic  wrap. Press down
with the palm of your hand to flatten slightly, then  press firmly to
form a thin circle. Use the first tortilla to test  the consistency of
the dough. If the edges of the tortilla are uneven  and crumbly, the
dough needs a little more water. If the sheet of  plastic sticks to the
dough and it is very soft, add a few  tablespoons of masa harina.
Repeat with the remaining dough, leaving  individual tortillas between
the sheets of plastic wrap. Heat a heavy  skillet over medium-high heat
until hot. Peel off the top sheet of  plastic and invert the tortilla
into the hot pan. Grill until  stiffened, about 30 seconds; turn for 1
minute or less, until the  side is slightly browned, then turn to the
first side for 30 seconds.  The time for grilling each tortilla is less
than 2 minutes. Repeat  with the remaining tortillas. Source: SouthWest
