You ready for an insane trick? Store your corn tortillas in the fridge. When you’re ready to use some (preferably a lot at once) grab the number of tortillas you want, plus two. Heat up a pan or griddle to medium/medium-high heat and carefully place the stack of tortillas on it, dry. Let that go until you start smelling the tortillas without standing over them, then flip the whole stack. Let this go until you smell the now-bottom tortilla starting to burn, then flip the stack one last time and let it go until the other end’s tortilla starts to burn. Remove the two burnt tortillas and place the rest in a tortilla warmer until you’re ready to enjoy your beautifully steamed but not damp corn tortillas.
Also, if you’re not warming your flour tortillas, you’re really missing out. If you have a gas stove, turn the flame on low and heat up the tortillas individually directly on top of the burner. Like-fresh every single time.
I prefer corn tortillas but often end up buying flour to keep at home because corn tortillas have to be warmed and flour doesn’t
