How do you flip your Tortillas?

Settling a debate - tortilla flipping

In our household, whether it's my current one, or the one I grew up in, we all flipped our tortillas with our bare hands.

Even quesadillas or other odds and ends.

If you used anything but your hands, you were cast out like the heathen you are.

Recently, I've come to find out I don't really know someone like I thought I did; he used a spatula

 

Bro, hands. Who used a spatula?

And you have to spin it a little, obviously. Makes it taste better..

 

OBVIOUSLY right?

You'd think...

 

Got a poll up

 

Is it acceptable to use tongs if you're heating them in oil?

 

Interesting, did your microwave break?

 

You did introduce a variable though, one that doesn't apply here though.

 

Spatula or a turner? There’s a big difference…

 

When I'm making burritos in bulk for the freezer I'll microwave flour tortillas with a damp paper towel

For immediate consumption? Nah

Hmmmmm

I was taught to warm corn tortillas in oil to rehydrate them and keep them from cracking

 

If it's not fingers or hands, you're as bad as the rest of them

 

Don't have to rehydrate if they're fresh

 

The only excuse for using tongs or a spatula are if they are part of your prosthetic arm after you lost your hands in a horrible culinary accident. Other than that, use your god damned hands.

 

It even says "hands free"

 

Depends.

Pre-made: hands
Home-made: spatula

Spatula is key if you're trying to make panuchos as well... https://www.sunset.com/recipe/panuchos-black-bean-filled-tostadas

 

I don't think Depends are sanitary in a kitchen environment

 

I didn't realize hybrids existed

 

I'm with this
