I was super-excited about the spoiler (I am a taco queen)… but I’ll sadly pass. I already have a tortilla press (which, see below, doesn’t work well for tortillas – though I cannot recommend making homemade tortillas enough…). Even with the press, the value is barely there. Without the press, definitely not.
I think I will buy the blue corn masa harina though.

I think pressing my own tortillas would be a fun concept that I’d try once or twice, and then the press would find its way to good will, and the remaining masa will end up in the back of the cabinet and never used. I’m out.
For anyone considering it, this particular press only has a couple of reviews on Amazon and they aren’t good.

Tortilla presses are a pain. I have one and I love it and i do use it, but not often for tortillas. Because they are just really hard to make flat enough to use in tacos, enchiladas, etc., unless you want to roll them out further on the counter afterwards.
Tip: Line the tortilla press with waxed paper on both sides before using and spray the heck out of it with Pam or something similar between each use. You’ll have to replace the waxed paper every 3-4 tortillas. (I just rip off a big sheet and fold it in half.) But the tortillas won’t stick that way.
If you are making any kind of filled pastry (empanadas, homemade samosas, etc.), a tortilla press is a quick way to flatten the balls of dough for the outside pastry part. This is usually how I use mine. Seems to work with all sorts of dough and flour (I don’t use white flour, but works with mixtures including chickpea flour, whole wheat pastry flour, masa harina, etc.).

I was about to say the same. Homemade tortillas are FANTASTIC and elevate your tacos exponentially…. but tortilla presses don’t work; you have to roll the dough. (Which isn’t hard…)
But I do use my press for empanadas…..

I love this box. I might have to get it. I quit HL a month or two ago, but I really want this.

Hmm, the value isn’t real there after looking at prices. I might just buy the pieces on my own.

I’m thinking the same. I really love the idea of this box but it doesn’t seem like a very good value. I’d love the try the press and the flour but it seems like I could get that stuff for half the price of the box. But I’m still tempted because I love the idea!
