I've had so much trouble rolling out GF dough in the past! But on some web site, I forget where, it was suggested to cut open a large ziploc bag. I cut off the top (zip part) and open up the two sides so it is one long sheet. I put the dough on the sheet, fold the sheet over, and roll it out "inside" the bag. It rolls out nice and flat and I don't have any problems with it sticking to the bag. Hi!

That's so exciting for me. I haven't tried the tortillas in anything except soft tacos and sandwich wraps...mainly because we're still so in love with those. But now that you've given me that idea I'll add something to my menu for this week that involves cooking the tortillas in sauce. Hi Carrie,

Glad you survived the tax season. I send my dad (also a CPA) a carepackage of GF goodies every tax season (though he refuses to be tested for celiac, I'm pretty sure I know what the results would show)- I'll add you to my list next year, so you don't have to deal with those gluten-infested snacks at work!

I've got to hand it to you, Mary Francis--this is one of the best recipe sites I've seen. The detailed info, photos, and techniques are a god-send. It's been absolute torture in my Mexican-American household, to have the cook (me!) be unable to eat flour tortillas, so this recipe is next on my "gotta try that!" list, especially since I make regular flour tortillas twice a week for all the bodies here. Your rolling directions are spot-on, by the way. A question, though--have you tried using these tortillas in any recipes that require cooking the tortillas in sauce--like enchiladas or chilaquillas? I'm wondering if they get gummy. I'm going to make some next week and give them a test run in some enchiladas and we'll see. Thanks, again!

Making tortillas is one thing I've never tried out...a lacking in my culinary journey you could say. Maybe I need to give them a try. With your excellent post like yours, they shouldn't be too hard...I hope. Sheltie Girl @ Gluten a Go Go Wonderful tutorial on rolling out tortillas Mary Francis.
