We haven't used it for flour tortillas but I cannot see why you couldn't use it for them.

I also find it's helpful to not make the dough too stiff as this makes it more difficult to press.

Not so much...I tried it. It doesn't apply enough pressure. It is best to roll out your flour toritillas.

Absolutely. After mixing the flour with the wet ingredients it should rest if possible for 15 min approx. This allows the flour to absorb all the moisture and that makes it less sticky to press. I use heavy plastic (cut from freezer baggies) on both sides and just peel off and toss on hot cast iron flat pan. Every dough I have tried comes out great.

Yes. I have used it for flour and corn tortillas. Both work well. It seems you need a little less pressure with the corn tortillas, but it will work for flour.

I use this flour only to bake hard bread or country bread. I have never used it to make cakes or cookies.

You can use it to make flour tortillas but they come out very thick. The press can not make them as thin as really good handmade tortillas.

No matter what kind of flour it is... The simple science is when u press , there is no enough pressure build up to make the tortilla/ roti from (dough ball ) still u want to try it .. Try it urself .. If u got succeeded let us know the tenchique too. Beauty of Amazon is ... They have good return policuu

You can use this in place of white flour in almost anything. It's very fine. I love it!

It would be uniquely NOT appropriate for the kind of brown sugar I use - a sticky molasses based, fairly solid, crumbly out of the box. This strainer works perfectly for dry flour. Mine still works perfectly - every Sunday since I bought it. The only complaint is the handle - if you had to use it for a more than a few seconds, the handle is very uncomfortable.

Yes you can by going to the Hefty web site. However , I use a plastic flour storage container from Big Lots that only cost around $2.00 and has a lid to keep closed when I have not put too much in it.

I wouldn't. The screen mesh is not as fine as regular flour sifter. It does not work well either for say just dusting powdered sugar on a cake. Mesh is too big. My recommendation, stick to an actual sifter.

I have not tried using it in place of flour. We use it like Bisquick, for biscuits and pancakes.I would imagine it would work. You may have to adjust the amount of liquid though, sometimes it's a bit sticky

No, you wouldn't be able to get a whole bag of flour in one of these. Maybe half of the bag would fit. Same thing with sugar.

Alice, flour tortillas and corn tortillas actually work very well, as will the Asian rice flour wrappers. Different fillings go great with one and better with another. Experiment.

I believe it would be fine. I use the container that was designated for flour because I wanted more sugar at my finger tips. I use smaller ones for brown sugar and confectioner sugar. They seal well and you can see how much you have left when you put it away.

It is kind of difficult. I used a dental tool purchased from target. However, you do not clean it too well. Small amount of flour left on it will not cause any harm.

I checked the package and said can be used to replace flour in quick breads which would mean no eggs or yeast. So I doubt that would work. I hope that helps. Its an awesome GF flour mix though, I use it chocolate chip cookies, banana bread and its awesome!

I use mine for flour and sugar. I wouldn't recommend using these for liquids - it would appear to me that the seal may not handle liquids.

Yes just substitute into any recipe. The only thing I made that wasn't great was pizza, but I had the same problem with a flour recipe. This is the best gluten free flour. You will b amazed

I have used it for breads, muffins and cookies. In those instances, the direct substitution worked fine. I'm not sure how it would work for pie crusts or pastries.
