Phil, if you still have the tortilla press, I’d like to buy it from you (or trade for something else?) You wrote that over 2 years ago so maybe I missed out. Anyway, hope to hear from you

I use mine to make mini-pizzas. It’s not just for pressing tortillas. Makes small pizzas that bake in about 7-8 minutes. You can slam them out for a party, baking 2 or 3 at a time on a pizza stone. You can also make a bunch of calzone shells and let partygoers fill them with what they want and take turns baking them. Another use is to press the Chinese Scallion Cakes after you’ve made the spiral of dough.

That actually isn’t a bad idea although the tortilla press has far too much charm to trade and I’ll hold that image of Baja even though I now know the truth.

Maybe we should set up some sort of trading post for useless (or rarely used) kitchen items – I could trade you, Robyn, for some heavy brass baulu (?) molds that I’m still ambivalent about not buying in Malaysia.
