There's really only one way to do this but this recipe calls for more of the lime solution than others I have tried. I wanted to see if there was any difference - nope. But as always homemade masa gives you a far superior corn tortilla than masa harina or anything you can buy at the chain grocers. My biggest issue with homemade corn tortillas has been getting them thin enough - I use a press but they still come out a little thick, especially for enchiladas, no fault of the recipe of course.
