When the timer goes off, carefully pull the towel bundle out. Use oven mitts—that towel is hot and steamy.
Let the stack sit on the counter for one minute—still wrapped. This lets the steam settle evenly so every tortilla gets its fair share of softness.
Then, unwrap with the grace of a taco ninja. Marvel at how beautiful they look. They should be glossy, warm, and fold without a single crack.
