Overview
Gonzalez built this tortilladora from aluminum, with a top hopper for the dough and a crank that feeds it through the rollers. A cutter shapes each tortilla, and extra accessories offer other diameters.
Adjustable rollers let you choose how thick the tortilla comes out, and the same machine spreads tamale leaves. The compromise is that it needs bench space and a firm hand, and cleanup is by hand only.
Who it's for
Cooks who like tortillas from scratch and have a steady table for the machine will get the most from it. A casual cook may prefer a simple press.
Pros and cons
- Rollers adjust tortilla thickness
- Aluminum body is built for repeated use
- Also spreads tamale leaves
- Includes instructions and mold
- Hand wash only
- Needs a steady surface
- Other diameters need extra accessories
Performance notes
Dough consistency decides the result, since masa that is too dry crumbles in the rollers and too wet clings to the cutter. Roller spacing controls thickness, and turning the crank at a steady pace helps hold the shape round.
