The stumps and tortillas are used for blending with chalk or oil pastels. just do not push too hard and blunt the stump/point. Even for works well with charcoal.

The package says "made with canola oil" and low in saturated fat. I gather they don't have the additives that prolong shelf life; a good thing. I found them to taste just like home made unlike other store bought tortillas. I highly recommend the product.

We used a six-inch tortilla which was what fit. It was a total failure: uneven browning, not crispy as I would expect. Mine is in the garage sale pile. I cannot recommend this kitchen gadget to you.

you just add the tortillas to the bottom part with a damp paper towel (to prevent them from getting too dry) and then microwave. if you have the lead it would trap too much heat. it is super simple and easy to use and comes with an explanation. we use it all the time.

Well, it's like the other responses, this is not used to cook the tortillas. It is. Just used to press them out. Then you put them in a pan to cook them. I use the plastic shopping bags on each side of the press. I love mine. You can really crank them out.

I grew up eating home-cooked flour tortillas and I despise packaged torillas. These uncooked tortillas cook up just like the ones my mother made me. It is an excellent product and I highly recommend it. Restaurants would have better results if they used this product, although preparing them from scratch is the best way.

325 to 350 for 20 to 25 mins until tortilla is formed. Timing could even be less depends on the oven or temp

the pie irons were bought as a gift to someone else, and I haven't heard them say what they have used. Tortillas would probably work great.

It surely does. It has heat on both non stick plates and you can press to spread and flatten the dough-ball to make the tortillas. Combination of the flour and liquid plays a vital role. I have seen users complain a lot as they are unable to make certain kind of flat breads, but this instrument does not read user's mind to know how the end result should be. So I still believe its an excellent product and can make things for you for example other than flat breads I have made cheese grilled sandwich, eggs, dollar pancakes, etc.. So enjoy it !

Once you remove the top plastic take your left hand and flip it tortilla side down in your right palm then lift away the bottom plastic.

They come with directions on how to take a tortilla and bake it. The anticipation is you would buy the tortilla but I am sure there are recipes on the internet on how to make one.

No, you generally cannot use any tortilla press for flour tortillas. They are too elastic to be pressed, and must be rolled out with something like a pin. Tortilla presses should only be used for corn tortillas, which can be made easily using Masa Harina (cornmeal with slaked lime), which is available in the ethnic/latino sections of most grocery stores.

Usually they sell them as (2) packages of (4) tortillas each. They are VERY good. I was missing flour tortillas so much, until I found these. Their other GF products are amazing too.

Marge - The tortillas are about the same size as the supermarket ones, but I would strongly recommend that you do NOT buy them!!!! They were such a disappointment! I grew up in Mexico and had hoped for the "real thing", but the Banderitas are WORSE than the supermarket brands!!! They were thin and totally fell apart -- they're good bird-food but not much else. I put them in the freezer and will use them in tortilla soup so they're not a total waste.Julie

No it is only a press ...in other words just shaps the tortilla...you need to roll the dough out into little balls...then press...you can cook the tortillas in a frying pan...as soon as you see bubbles flip over and cook the other side....they cook very quickly....hope this helps.

Just the bottom heats up. You must flatten the ball of dough to get size/desired thickness & then after a short bit, then open & turn the tortilla over to cook other side & properly. The top just reflects the heat from the bottom.

Not thin enough to make a truly flexible or traditionally thin tortilla. You have to do it by hand to get a really thin tortilla.
