Know before you buy
The press has a 6.5-inch diameter, which is the ideal size for crafting authentic street-style tacos.
No, this press must be hand-washed only. Because it is made of cast iron, avoid soaking it in water and ensure it is completely dry before storing to prevent rust.
Yes, it is highly recommended to line the press with plastic wrap or parchment paper on both the top and bottom plates. This prevents the dough from sticking to the cast iron and makes it much easier to transfer your tortilla to the pan.
The handmade servilleta is a traditional cloth napkin used to keep your freshly cooked tortillas warm and soft. Simply wrap the warm tortillas in the cloth after they come off the griddle to retain moisture and heat while you finish cooking the rest.
The press arrives ready to use. Since it features an enamel coating over the cast iron, you do not need to season it like a traditional raw cast iron skillet.
