Homemade tortillas are a cultural staple of the Tex-Mex experience. Here, Marengo Sanchez offers a glimpse into the process, with a bag of Maseca (corn flour) standing by. The roller is set aside, and the tortilla, lying on the floral tablecloth, is rolled. In a nearby jar, additional flour is kept to aid the process. The tortilla is not a perfect circle, reinforcing the charming, handmade aspect of the process.
