Steamers are well and good but not typically found in people's kitchens. Microwaving pre-packaged tortillas is an easy way to make them burrito-capable. Even "good" packaged tortillas benefit from the microwave treatment.
- ics 4y agoMy home method: keep a spray bottle handy or, in a pinch, dribble some water along the edge of the tortilla while it’s in the pan. Can get a very tight seal if you then roll it over or spread with a spoon/spatula.
- giantrobot 4y agoI'll have to try out a spray bottle. I usually go for the microwave because I usually am scooping the meat out of the pan I cooked it in. I microwave the tortillas on a plate I'm eventually using to serve them. Everywhere I've lived saved my current house has had cramped kitchens so I'm used to a cramped meal prep area. I optimize for fewer dishes as I've never had the room and I hate doing dishes post-meal anyways. I'm curious to try the spray bottle as I'm sure it'll do a better job steaming tortillas than my microwave technique.
