T is for Tacos and Tortillas!

Colette's mom, Dilva, paid us another visit this month! She and Colette taught our class about how to make handmade tortillas out of corn. We learned that in Mexico, all types of corn gets pressed and mushed into masa (flour). Then we were able to make our own tortillas using masa and a tortilla press! Then Dilva cooked the tortillas on a grill, and we chose toppings like beans, cotija cheese, and sour cream to eat on our tortilla. 

Thank you Dilva and Colette for this tasty lesson in culture and food!
