How to find a satisfactory tortilla press by yourself

January 13, 2022

Size

When you buy a Tortilla press, one thing you need to consider is whether you want to make corn or flour tortillas. Most tortilla presses fall within 6 to 10 inches in diameter, and corn tortillas do better with smaller diameter presses, while flour tortillas need more area. You can also pick a press based on the size of the tortilla you want to make. Larger plates on the press means you can make larger size tortillas, as well as smaller ones.

Weight

Cast iron is the best chose for most home cooks, as the heaviness does a lot of work for you. As Andy Wang, chef and cofounder of Knives Sensei said, "You don't need a really heavy Tortilla Press to make great tortillas—in fact, it's just the opposite."

Material

Most tortilla presses are made from cast iron or cast aluminum on the market. This lends durability to the press and ensures they will be up to large batches of tortillas. Wooden tortilla presses are also efficient. The wooden construction gives it a very different look than the usual cast iron or cast aluminum models. That also makes it a good candidate for countertop storage. It’s as much a sculptural decor item as it is a tortilla tool. You can also find electric options, which not only flatten the tortilla, but cook them, as well.

Ease of Cleaning

Cast iron or cast aluminum tortilla presses are easy to clean by most wipe, but must be reseasoned occasionally. Wooden tortilla presses easy to warping, and require more care to maintain that stunning look. They can't be submerged in water and must be dried thoroughly. Electric models tend to be more difficult to clean because they can't be submerged.
