Notes
I have read that these will keep in the fridge or freezer, sealed. I have not tried this as the ones I have made were gone within minutes of coming out of the pan.
Also, I did not allow my tortillas to rest. I used a tortilla press and would press one tortilla at a time. I would place one pressed tortilla in the pan and leave the next one in the press. I do recommend covering your tortilla balls or the air will dry them out.
