Line a tortilla press with 2 pieces of parchment paper and set it aside.

Pour warm water into a bowl and stir in the salt until it dissolves.

In a bowl, combine the flour, the salted water, and the oil, and mix with your hands until a smooth dough forms. Transfer the dough to a smooth surface and knead lightly until it feels compact and does not crumble. Divide into 4 equal portions and roll each into a ball.

Heat a griddle over medium-high heat. Place one dough ball between the 2 pieces of parchment in the tortilla press and press down. Open the press and carefully peel off the top sheet of parchment. Flip the tortilla onto your hand and gently remove the second sheet. Place the parchment back on the press. Immediately cook the pressed tortilla on the hot griddle. Cook until bubbles form, flip, and cook the other side until browned. Do not flip before bubbles appear or the tortilla may break. Repeat with the remaining dough balls.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products
easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.
The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.
Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.
For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
