Today’s guest on She’s My Cherry Pie is marissagencarelli, the co-founder of yolitortilleria, the Kansas City-based bakery and product line. Marissa and host jessiesheehanbakes walk through the process of making corn and flour tortillas from scratch. You’ll learn about different corn varieties, the ancient process of “nixtamalization,” and how to look out for the pancita, or “little belly,” of the corn tortillas as they cook and puff on the hot comal. Marissa also gives a mini history lesson on agriculture and tortilla-making in Mexico that you won’t want to miss.
