  • Place about 2 cups of masa harina in a bowl and sprinkle with a little salt. Moisten with about 1/2 cup + of water until wet enough to hold together but not too wet.
  • Roll masa harina into large walnut size balls and press in tortilla press that has had both
  • sides covered with siran wrap. Place freshly pressed tortilla on ungreased grill and brown slightly. Make several if you can before people start grabbing them and eating them........
  • Break apart pork that has been cooking all day into shreds. Place on hot tortilla with broken up cheese and salsa or hot sauce. Pick up and enjoy, letting it drip and drool down your chin. A great little lettuce salad with tomatoes and lemon juice and salt and pepper is fabulous.
