    It's probably a good tip, but I'm not patient enough to let it rest and I haven't had any problems. I broke my tortilla press (!), so now I use two pie plates [one upside-down, then plastic, then the dough ball, then more plastic, then the 2nd plate right-side up] and it works great!

    If you let your masa rest 5-10 min after you blend in the water, it gives the corn flour time to absorb the water, which will give you a better indicator of whether it has enough moisture. Be sure to cover it as well so it doesn't dry out. Also, feel free to add herbs/spices to the flour. I like to add garlic and Parmesan for a little extra flavor. It just depends on what you're doing with the tortillas afterwards. Happy Cooking! :)
