Tortilla Making

We've been too busy living the experiences to write about them! So we're all home from the trip, but we want to document them anyway.

Every day at every meal while we were at Casa de Sion, we ate tortillas. Tortillas go with beans, rice, eggs, noodles, anything! That's why we were so excited to learn to make tortillas with our cooks who made us so many delicious meals.
The recipe seemed so easy. Add water to corn flour until it feels like play-dough, roll it into a ball, and pat it from hand to hand, smoothing out the edges, until it's a nice shape.

We started patting out our tortillas, and it's not as easy as it looks! We dropped quite a few pieces of dough on the ground. The cooks were laughing at our attempts.
Can you guess which ones we made, and which the cooks made? Thankfully, they still tasted wonderful!
