COOKBANG! 🌶 HOMEMADE TORTILLAS & CHIPS 

Heads up: I phoned Maseca & they definitely are a GMO corn. Bob's Red Mill is GMO-free but is ground coarser than Maseca (& it costs more) so must let sit longer to hydrate or dry grind in blender. Bob's is made from yellow corn & tastes WAY better than Maseca's white cornmeal! Love your channel:)

I use a glass pie plate to press my tortillas. Works great! Also adding some black pepper to the tumeric greatly improves absorption, acording to Dr Greger. Just use one part pepper for each 4 parts tumeric.

Squeeze some lime juice in the with the cilantro? I love me some lime chips

We're still checking out your videos, six years later! Love how this simple amazing approach lets us make better choices for both our bodies and habits! I'm determined to beat the pleasure trap at its own game. Thanks Dillon!

You could make these into killer empanadas and drizzle some cheese sauce over - could be filled with beans/rice or your breakfast potato mix

I’ll be making those! The flavor that comes immediately to my mind is cumin. I love the flavor of cumin. And half cumin/half red chili. Or green chili/red chili/garlic. I have to stop. I have to get to the kitchen! Thanks. Love, love, love your videos.

This is good, thanks. I'll buy a tortilla press eventually because it's cost effective, like you said. Today and yeste3rday, I made tortilla chips from premade extra thin corn tortillas. I am trying to convince my Dad to go whole food plant based since he has heart disease and this diet clearly cures the problem. He also has atrial fibrillation, and there was a study of obese people in Australia who went on a diet to help with atrial fibrillation: it lowered the frequency by like 80% and the duration/severity by like 50%. This is very important. My dad really enjoyed the chips! I got better at making them already. My parents tend to think everything is ok just being on a statin, but there is still underlying heart disease. Dad also got a stent in the anterior descending artery after 80% blockage found. T his is clearly heart disease caused by the rich western diet. The obstacles to change with my parents are pretty similar to many people, I bet: first, they appear resigned that it's inevitable to have health problems while old. Second, they have the idea that diet couldn't possibly change or cure the problem. Third, they enjoy their current food and cannot However, Dad is somewhat open and will talk to the cardiologist about it. I will gather key information and make a presentation to my Dad, including highlighting Caldwell Esselstyn's video stating 'heart disease is nothing but a toothless paper tiger'. He's a good speaker. My Dad is technical and scientific. The more he sees, the more interested he will get. Thanks again!

I’m now addicted to making these.. one batch I did with salsa instead of water. They were great

I made these yesterday. They were amazing. Tried many versions including with paprika (yum) and another version I made was with some defrosted peas, crushed a bit - I also added some onion and garlic powder and they were amazing.

Like the ideas! You are making me want to buy a tortilla press - but I'm not sure I can justify it as a kitchen staple. My favorite thing to do when making chips is to add some lime juice to the tortillas before baking them.

Thanks for the tip about organic corn flour!

I would try to add nutritional yeast and finely chopped jalapeno pepper :)

Yes, banana bread please! Your videos are so chill and easy to watch. This one really inspired me to make my own tortillas and chips (just like my grams did every morning), gracias!

Fresh made corn tortillas are the best! Taste better than store bought and cheaper to make than to buy.

I like this. Simple. Healthy. I like the summary statement the ratio is about 2 teaspoons of whatever spice you want in the cup of cornmeal. I also like the idea of using the water to blend cilantro (or any other whole fresh item) and THEN put it into the recipe as instructed. I like super simple recipes like this that I can easily "memorize" and make. In my day- to- day life, I have a bunch of super easy recipes I don't have to think about much, and then some that I will pull out the notes. This one is easy. No notes necessary.

I am going to try this as soon as I can because my chips cravings are big !!!

I'm going try using casava flour....and also ripe plantains on our tortilla press.

I’m thinking jalapeño or green chile in the water...🤔

Oh man.....here I go with the homemade tortillas! Thanks! Just purchased my racks and press.

Your brainstorming process is fab! Thanks for video

Strawberry tortillas filled with vegan Nutella and drizzled with strawberries and jam and coconut whip 😳

Loved this idea! I just made some, but they were premade tortillas, clearly had some added fat to them, and they were pretty thin. What I did was spray them lightly with water (with a spray bottle), then added my seasonings (Mrs. Dash No Salt "Fiesta Lime", it's all I had on hand at the time) and followed your cook temp and time and man were they good and crunchy! Thanks so much for all of your fun videos, you've helped me on my plant-based journey, love them all! Now I want to get the tortilla press and a taco shell former. Thanks again :-)

I love tortillas chips but haven't been eating them lately because want to make myself and now you have made it so simple for me to see I can! Thanks so much!

I'm also a big fan of dipping the cut tortilla in lime (and salt if you're not SOS free) before baking to make lime chips!

Totally going to try your strawberry idea and run with it!! Might try it out on friends this weekend!!

I didn't see the Tortilla Press in the links below the video?

Same ingredients for dumplings in veggie soup

They have to be good with vegetables stock

You could do spinach tortillas he same way you did the cilantro ones. So inspiring!! Thanks!!

Ohhh yeah! Great experiment! Thinking outside the box! And the crrrunch on those baked tortillas 👍 I will definitely be trying these! TFS 👌🏼😎

I got the ingredients to try and make them corn 🌽 shells like you Are showing US BEGINNERS and so many different flavors AWESOME

OK I am absolutely loving your recipes I think the tumeric one would be really good with like an Aloo Gobi or any of the Indian food flavors

thank you so much for step 🪜 by step 🪜 instructions 😃 AND examples

We really appreciate your demonstrations. You are down to earth and have been a great help to us. Thank you so much!

Sweet tortillas would taste alot like the sweet tamales that are made by Latin families all over Latin America. Chocolate, Strawberry, Pineapple, Apple, Raisin, Coconut, Guava- you name it- it is already in a sweet tamale form.

Cool vid. Never cooked with Masa before, is it low or high glycemic?

Why would I watch this at 7am?! I'm starving now lol I love the idea of the add ins. YUM! Do you not worry about the masa not being organic? Would love to hear your thoughts on gmo's!

Man, I love this! I can NEVER find tortillas without oil. I’m going to Amazon and order a press. Can’t wait to try it. Thanx! Love your ideas.

A very informative video, and your original tortilla creations look tasty! (I was directed here by a post in the "McDougall Friends" Facebook group.)

ive just finished watching this vid and i really enjoyed it. i gotta say WOW CONGRATS to you Dillon for saving yourself a fortune! i dont know about America but in Australian supermarkets, flavoured or spiced flatbread/tortillas are very expensive! Even WORSE- ive never been able to find ANY brand over here, without bloody oil listed in the ingredients! (why??WHY??) so anyway, thats why i would love to copy you and make these! But um, what other names does masa go by please? cos im now checking websites and online supermarkets and so far theres no masaca to be found. Wahhh. youve well and truly inspired me tho mate & IF i get my hands on some masa to make these, the first variety i wanna try is a mix of lemon zest with nooch! (gonna try em as thick chilli bean roll ups with cos lettuce shreds and a drizzle of your cheese sauce!) YUM!

I've been making some tortillas, but don't have a press yet so, they come out kind of thick. I love your enthusiasm for your food. I really want to be around people who love this food the way you do/I do. I found organic yellow, white, and blue corn masa from goldminenaturalfoods.com and have been playing around with it. I don't like using a non stick skillet so tried it with my old cast iron. Maybe I tried it too hot but it sticks and/or gets too dry. I see you use just a stainless skillet. How on earth do you keep them from sticking? I also tried spices in them. Have to get the press. I've tried pressing with another pan etc, but not really thin enough. Thanks so much for this video. Perfect timing. Lynn

Your so dam cute, honestly now. I could watch you all day long! I'm plant based now after 3yr of finding my way through a vegan lifestyle. I told my sister, I think I need to tweek my intake a little more and cut out the salt and sugars. I just found you the other day, and you've given me an incredible amount of ideas already. You eat and cook like me,simple and quick. Bow if I could only get my vitamix from my daughter!☺

Over the top!Build your own tortilla chips! This week we are making the switch to making our own chips after watching this video. Great cilantro and chile tortilla. You truly understand food addiction. We agree making your own will slow down the amount. Also you just taught us a process that will bring the family together in cooking our own chips and then enjoying them. Thanks! GREAT VIDEO!

Oh my gosh so delicious

The algorithm has me watching vintage WYW today and I'm loving it. I'd gotten away from the simplicity of when I first stopped eating animals, so thanks for being a part of the with me!

A pinch of black pepper to your turmeric makes the curcumin 200% more bioavailable...

Can you make flour tortillas? The commercial made ones have so many scary ingredients in them.

Have you tried lime cilantro water to mix w your maseca?

Maseca brand has tested positive ( 10/2018 - as high as 95% ) for glyphosate and Roundup. The Mexican owned co. ( Gruma ) must be importing GMO corn from US et al. since it is banned in Mex. Bob's Red Mill is so expensive you might as well just buy ready made non-GMO tortillas.

Damn....never eaten fresh tortillas before, so was lucky enough to find the exact same flour you use on eBay uk as well as the press, so wish me luck lol 👍🏻

Mine keep falling apart, they won't hold together, I added a bit more water, but still had to press it on the pan. Has anyone had this problem and solved it? Thanks!

Hi, Awesome tortilla recipes! Can we store these tortillas after cooking? And what is the way to store them please. TIA

Adding cumin will make a more authentic Mexican flavor.

I'm so sad. I tried to make these last night and was a total flop. As it turned out, I had corn meal and not corn flour :-( will try again

I never thought making Homemade Tortillas was so easy and SOS and so #Frugal & #Healthier....... Pesto Tortillas haha

I love this! I love all your videos and I thank you and your comrades for putting all of this into existence!!! I watch daily. Only three months in and need all the help I can get! You are my fav!

It’s also healthier because there’s no preservatives in the homemade tortilla-

Nicely done video

Does anyone know if organic corn flour would work and be healthy

I have tried store bought corn tortillas and I found them to be gross. Yeah, I am used to eating the store bought flour tortillas. Currently, I have been wfpb sos-free for almost three months. Do you think it is a good idea to try these? I am afraid I still won't like them. Is there something I can add to this recipe to make them taste better? Then I will eventually take it out so they are wfpb sos-free. If you find this message, I appreciate any tips or suggestions you might have for us who haven't been wfpb sos-free as long as others. thx :)

I’m curious whether your fingers are dyed from the turmeric? Mine look like an old smoker with yellowish brown fingertips from cooking with it.

I got a fabulous brunch idea I'll have to get it and try it but it has apples and raisins and mixed berries and probably a little bit of oats

New subscriber because of McDougall friends fb group! Awesome video!!!! Can't wait to binge watch all your videos!!!!😊😊😑😑

Before going vegan I made these apple pie enchiladas... I can't quite remember the recipe but I found some cinnamon sugar tortillas and put apple pie filling inside and baked them, I'm sure butter and more cinnamon sugar was involved lol... I remember them being quite tasty but definitely not good for you!

I got some but its not easy...got the press and mine is still too thick...

They look weak can they handle the thick stuff like guacamole

I'm Mexican and have never wanted to make a corn tortilla in my life until today! Thinking I'll go to my closest Mexican meat market and buy a press for homemade tortillas asap! (Ps- mom used to use wax paper for non stick tortillas) Lol... as far as brunch a very popular Mexican breakfast or brunch is chilaquiles. These are typically fried tortillas in a verde sauce or a salsa and most people would serve over easy eggs on them. I could totally see a tofu scramble being used with fresh pick. I would love to see you come up with an SOS version on this. Up for the challenge??

Great video! I love your videos and I feel like binge watching, but you don't have enough videos for that yet. Get going man. :-) I wish you extreme success on your You Tube channel. I hope you reach a million subscribers. Your vegan channel is a breath of fresh air, and I have High Carb Hannah to thank for making so many of us aware of your channel.

love it love it love it llllllllllooooooooovvvvvvveeeeeeee iiiiiittttt.

I've freeze-dried organic roma tomatoes and powdered them. I might try to add that, in small amounts, to these homemade tortillas. Any thoughts? I've also FD'd organic strawberries - did you ever try strawberries with the corn tortillas?

I have gluten please help me with tortillas Flour

Hey, have you considered using your nutribullet to blend jalapeño In your water when making chips. I only ask because you love jalapeño chips so much.

We live in Nicaragua and get hot fresh tortillas everywhere for about 50 cents a dozen. Make yourself some blended spicy bean dip on there !

Can you use 100 % whole grain flour?😊

Turmeric hands! Love it!!

Could add a low fat or not fat ranch or Caesar vegan dressing and add to spicy chili pepper flour and all some nutritional yeast for a type of cheesy nacho chip...god I’m hungry.

Just ordered the tortilla press! Excellent video! Just subscribed, Thanks!!

Love your videos and love the humor! I am thinking Pizza Tortilla single serving--maybe use the onion and garlic with herbs in the "crust" and veggies on top with a little nutritional yeast or maybe your homemade cheese sauce.

Could you use nooch to make it cheesy?

Great ideas! The end of the video had me cracking up 😂😂😂

Thank you so much for this. I have to eat SOS free

When making chips, could you skip the cooking in the pan step and go straight to the oven???

Dillion do you have enchilada sauce recipe.?

Plus you don't get ALL those extra ingredients you don't need thank you so much I just bought some masa so I could try to make my own thank you so much DILLON I sure APPRECIATE all your help

how long did the yellow staining on your fingers take to wear off? Tumeric actually stained my wok! Have you ever had Red Hot Blues from Garden of Eatin'? They are a snack I am actively trying to replace

In San Diego I buy Mr. Rancho brand ( Berber in San Leandro ) soft taco sliders. Cut in half and place on a cookie sheet in toaster oven at 375F until stiff. Remove and sray lightly with high heat avo oil in a Mr.Misto bottle. Sprinkle with salt and smoked paprika ( Arab markets have best price ). Whole Foods also has their brand of soft tortillas.

Dillon - Why would masa be needed? How is it different than just grinding up into flour some dent corn?

Wow... onion powder garlic powder and basil water just because that’s what I had ..Bammmm yumm!!!

Thank you thank you love love love this ❤❤

I really like that you take us along on your adventures! Thank you!

Hi! Love your videos! Can't find the link to the tortilla maker though. Help!

Okay, you sold me! Just ordered my press and non-GMO masa. Can’t wait to experiment. Think I’ll add some seeds to a version.

Great idea thanks. I need a press.

I love your recipes!! Especially your sauces. I started last week and I have lost 4 pounds! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!!! But, aren't you worried about GMO's???

I finally got my tortilla press a couple days ago. Thanks for the recommendation and the link. Good choice. Today, I decided to see if I could make some blue corn tortillas and maybe some chips. Very easy to use. One thing I did was press into the surface some of the flavorings like onion flakes, garlic granules, spice, etc. Onion flakes was the only thing that might not be everybody's style. I liked them, but they get/stay a little crunchy. Might be better to reconstitute them like you did with the cilantro. I didn't/couldn't wait to make any chips but one of the tortillas kind of fell apart and I let it become 'chips' in the pan....pretty good. Still haven't made the pico, but used some of the salsa I had from making Mrs. Plant's salsa, no salt, no oil. It actually called for sugar so I threw in a date, but will leave it out next time. Too sweet, for me. So. Thanks for the encouragement and now I can call myself a real (if not real good,) tortilla maker. lol...Lynn

idea to add to the breakfast tortilla. strawberry AND spinach water but the water being a water/lime juice & zest mixture! THANKS for the inspiration!

This was really good. Thanks!

Corn chips are my Achilles heel in this WFPB way of eating. It's the only thing that hangs me up. Thank you for this video! I'll be looking for that tortilla press for sure!

I make my own sos granola instead of buying cereal. Maple syrup, peanut butter, oats, nuts, dried fruit, bake.

Awesome video! I just bought the same tortilla press, so this video is AWESOME 👏 🥳🥳🥳Thank You 😊 🌱🌿
