1
Mix the Dough
In a large bowl, combine the blue cornmeal and salt. Gradually add water and olive oil, mixing until a dough forms. The dough should be soft and pliable.
2
Knead the Dough
Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 2-3 minutes until smooth. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.
3
Shape the Tortillas
Divide the dough into small balls (about the size of a golf ball). Using a tortilla press or a rolling pin, flatten each ball into a thin disc.
4
Cook the Tortillas
Heat a cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Cook each tortilla for about 1-2 minutes on each side until lightly browned and cooked through.
5
Serve
Stack the cooked tortillas on a plate and cover with a cloth to keep warm. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container.
