Hey, im mexican and have grown up my whole life eating homemade tortillas and to keep them soft as soon as you cook them put them in a kitchen towel when your done you keep the tortillas in the towel and put them in a ziplock bag and there you go 😊
I agree. I’d add, when you reheating them make sure the heat is very hot. If on medium heat they dry out and crack. Make sure to keep and eye on them so they don’t burn.
Do you have to use an in-stick skillet to make them?,-‘ can u use stainless steel or would they stick?
Just came to say this. After cooking, allowing the tortillas to "steam" together in a towel after cooking is essential.
It's become a tradition between me and my wife for me to comment under the video, and for her to read it when we watch it. Great video Leoppsky!
@@victor_2216 that is so freaking sweet 😭
Aww that's so nice! Just a note that her name is Delilah and the last name is spelled Loeppky 🙂
I do that with a friend😅 we Watch the same creators and we look for oneanothers comments❤
One thing I really appreciate about your videos is how you show that a slower paced life with kids is achievable. All I see on social media is Mom's talking about how exhausted, and overwhelmed they are. Not saying there aren't times when you're probably tired or overwhelmed, but you seem to be such a peace keeper in your home. It's so encouraging🤍
I honestly think it has a lot to do with the overstimulation of our children, and even us. We moved our tv out of our main living space, and it already has made such a beneficial difference in our home.
You’re right! But it’s also best to remember this is a snapshot. We don’t see that her parents and Zack’s are available to help, that Zack is super involved (which is sad that isn’t the norm), living in a relatively cheap place, and success on RUclips (not that she didn’t work for it!). These things take a lot of stress off a mom but they are NOT normal for many. Completely forgetting that can make other moms feels like they aren’t good enough
@@KewBlinklaI remember way back when I discovered her she had a 5am routine video when she had only two kids. It was WAY more relatable and no cut outs of the messy parts of motherhood too. Now it’s completely shifted. All about how her videos look. Maybe some like videos like that but it’s not the reason why I hit the subscribe button years ago.
Oh She mentioned being burnt out every now and again, I positively believe there Is stress and heaviness in her Life, but also lots of light, and that's what She shares with us. ❤
@@Ray-pt5bi Yes like I said they're are probably times where she is burnt out, and overwhelmed. And that's totally normal, and okay! But from my experience often the energy you put out is the energy you get back from your children. If you simplify things and are less stressed (where you can be), children will likely follow suit.
@@LMJ-ly8ug she is probably usually overwhelmed lol, everyone is now a days. I’d argue that these are the highlights and the good moments, she’s mentioned many times that she made it a point not to share the bad moments due to her children’s privacy. You have to remember that people only share the good on social media (thankfully she does so for good reason.) She shows about 10% of her day. I highly doubt that majority of her day is that calm and serene with children, because that’s not real life. It’s funny to complain that people talk about how exhausting motherhood is, because I guarantee that’s exactly why she doesn’t feel comfortable talking about that more. People get annoyed at mothers expressing real life emotions and reality, they only want a staged aesthetic video to watch. Although I do agree that her videos truly are an art, and she clearly enjoys staging it as so, don’t act like this is an accurate representation of how her days go. It’s not. It’s meant to be video art, not a documentary. Don’t complain about mothers who tell it how it is, because if it wasn’t for them a lot of people would wonder why their lives don’t look perfect and serene.
You impress me so much with everything you can get done. I have a 5 month old and find it hard to just to get laundry put away in the day. I wish my days could look like yours ❤ I truly don’t know how you do it with 4 kiddos. You’re such an inspiration.
I'm sure this is not her regular day to day life. This is RUclips and a fake sense of reality.
Also the more kids you have and experience makes it easier to get things done. I’m sure her older kids help out a bit too and can occupy themselves while she cooks. You will get there one day, don’t beat yourself up 🤍
@@HelloSunshine44422 I don't know I have a couple of mom friends who were just born to be like this. As in they love cooking and home making and what not.
These are the best meals from the times she could put something together. Comparison is a thief of joy. You’re doing great!
I’m assuming she HAS to have some help of some sort. My husband is on the road weeks at a time and I have 3 under 4 so there’s no way my days would look like this everyday on my own lol I laughed when she said she cleans her kitchen before she cooks. Dishes all emptied out the sink and all. Idk that’s not realistic for everyone. I have a kid saying, “wipe my butt” and then the baby wakes up. Then another kid spills something. Dog needs out to potty. Real life things. No way I couldn’t get all the kitchen clean before I cook in this season of life. I’m usually scrambling to get dinner done as quick as I can. So don’t compare.
Hi! I’ve been watching you a long time. Love your channel ❤ Would love to see another video on marriage or parenting! These cooking ones are great but as a mom who doesn’t feel like she really has the capacity to cook from scratch as much as you, I’d love to see those types of videos again! Much love!
I agree
Yes I can relate! ❤
Yeah when you’re trying to avoid showing your children, it gets harder. I followed Sarah Therese. And she’s back but doing cooking videos. Cooking is not a passion of mine, even though I do intend to start cooking a lot more stuff from scratch when I have the bandwidth. It’s just not really something I subscribed for.
Yeah I totally respect her not wanting to show her kids as much.
More parenting and marriage videos for me too! ❤
Im hispanic, and always struggled with tortillas as an adult until I switched to a recipe that uses butter or lard rather than oil. That was the game changer. Even with plenty of rest time, the recipes that used oil always produced tough dough and tortillas that would break. With the recipe that uses butter or lard, the tortillas are so pliable that I can crumple them up in my hand and they wont break and they reheat for days to the same pliability. The dough even keeps in the fridge for days and remains easy to roll out. Highly recommend using butter/lard rather than the oil.
Hi Delilah, you make it all look so easy & delicious! Your kids are so sweet helping you make things! Thanks for always sharing! ♥️😉🫂🐾🌹🦉🍄🧵🪡🧶📓✏️🧩🎨🖌🖼🦋✨️
when you reward the tortillas, put them in the oven and use a spray bottle with some water and spray the oven, or just place a bowl of water underneath. the moisture will help keep the bread pliable. it also works for reviving a stale loaf
😍baby A trying the lemon was so cute!!🥹
These slow, peaceful videos are exactly what I’ve been needing in this season of motherhood. Thank you for the meal inspiration and the calm pace of the video :)
I love this content! It makes it feel doable to cook from scratch and not as intimidating 😊
Salsa is SO easy! Just throw it in the food processor and mix. Don’t roast it takes too long haha!!
Ingredients
6 fresh tomatoes (I used roma tomatoes)
1/3 onion- sweet or red- roughly chopped
bunch of cilantro
pinch of cayenne pepper
1 jalepeno or serrano pepper
lime
salt
3 cloves of garlic
Hi Delilah,
I’ve been a subscriber since you first found out about your third pregnancy. Throughout the years, your videos have brought such a sense of peace, love, and inspiration that I am so grateful for. I am not a mother yet, but I hope to be someday soon. You inspire me to try my best to allow the Lord to guide me in every aspect of life, and my journey to motherhood. The cool thing too, is that I think you’re younger than me? I appreciate your honesty when it comes to struggles you have in your life and walk with God. You show your humanity but also glorify God while being real and honest. Your videos have also inspired me to try to cook from scratch and implement other habits that I’d like to have when it comes to homemaking and taking care of my family and household. Growing up, my mother was always in the kitchen, cooking, baking, and showing her love through meals and treats. She always tried her very best to provide for my brother and I, but also be there for us with her time. You remind me a lot of my mom, and that is the highest compliment I can give you. My mother is a huge blessing in my life. I really admire your boldness in sharing God’s love through your videos! God’s hand really translates through your personality, the way you hold yourself, and your content! I pray that God continues to use you as a vessel to spread the gospel and his love. I pray that he continues to give you courage and strength. May God bless you and your beautiful family! 💕
I used to make salsa a lot but when I became a mom I had to find shortcuts so bought it for a while. Now I actually have a veggie chopper and it’s saved me a lot of time and will be making my own from now on! Takes only a few minutes to chop everything up!
To answer your question about keeping tortillas soft, I take a pan with water and cover it with a steamer screen that has a handle and steam the tortilla for a few seconds on each side. The tortilla comes out soft and warm and stays that way. In other words, steam your tortillas. I hope this works for you!
Love this!!! That berry crumble would be GONE in a few minutes here at my house. Going to try this along with those egg salad sandwiches! So yummy!!
Oh Delilah, baby Annie is so cute thanks for the little glimpse❤ she has such a different face from the other darlings❤❤
Omg!! As a latin woman living in the west coast USA I was shocked at the "never made salsa before" like what?!!.. it shows that our culinary expertise and interests are deeply shaped by location and exposure.. im sure you can do a fabulous job with home grown tomatoes 🍅
she’s so white it hurts sometimes
Hi! A tip for the tortillas, spread a thin layer of butter/any fat once you take them of the pan, so that they store better and don’t fall apart after some days in the fridge. Saludos desde Argentina! 🇦🇷🤍
Very encouraging and inspiring watched while I meal planned
To keep them soft keep them warm in a towel and then store once cooled 🙂. To keep the burritos closed toast the wrap burrito on a pan with the fold down❤
I freeze my tortillas and then thaw them when im going to eat them for the next meal. I heat them in the microwave wrapped in a damped paper towel
I do the same! It works really well:)
Hey mama! mmm the food looks so yummi and delish! Big hugs to everybody, Love your channel
Warm your tortillas up wrapped in a wet towel or wet paper towel. It imparts some of the moisture back into them.
Thanks for the inspirational video!
About the tortilla's: I put them on a plate en cover it with a damp towel, and let that cool. When they are cool, I store them in a zipplock bag. That turns out great every time, even when I store them in the freezer. Good luck!
I’ve never stored fresh tortillas but if it were me I’d put them in a plastic freezer bag with damp paper towels between them and put them in the fridge if you’re going to use them right away and freezer otherwise. Wrap them in damp paper towels and heat in the microwave. I think they break from lack of moisture
When I make tortillas, I put them between a clean tea towel after cooking them. I just keep putting them in the towel as I finish cooking them and that way they sweat a bit and it keeps them soft. I even store them like that, but juts pop a bag over the tea towel of tortillas, in the fridge. Hope that helps!
I’m learning so much from you!! I take notes whenever you post these kind of video. Doing more and more made from scratch meals now ❤️❤️
For re-heating the tortillas: put them in the microwave with a small bowl of water. Reheat them for 30-45 seconds. The water will create moisture inside and they’ll be as fresh as new 😊
Annie’s little face with you doing the seasonings was so cute ! Her little tongue slightly hanging out 😂❤
From SA. Super yummy, add a dash of cream in scrambled eggs, is soo yummy. But it needs to be once it’s cooked already, just before you take it out the pan.
Yes, girl, your videos are always full of inspiration. Keep them coming.💕💕
Great video Delilah! AnnaBeth is getting so big! You are blessed with a beautiful family and the kitchen dance was adorable! 💛
Those birds singing in the background in your voiceover were so enjoyable to hear 😌 thanks for all the recipes and your relaxing vibe even though I’m actually watching labour 😅 you are an inspiration
Enjoyed this video! Mom to a little one and as much as I loved eating fresh before becoming a mom, cooking has become a lot more challenging since having my son. Great to see some ideas and so relaxing to watch 🩷
I made a pear crumble this morning because of your berry one! So yes, totally inspired me today!
When I make homemade tortillas, I put them in a towel and keep them wrapped until I’m ready to use. Now when I’m storing them, I completely wrapped them in the same towels and I stick it in a Ziploc bags and they stay fresh for days even when I put it in the fridge, they never get hard enough to break. they heat up beautifully. Just wrap them in some kind of cloth I don’t know why but cloth works really good with tortillas.. also your family is absolutely beautiful.
So much lovely food! And you look lovely, too, mama! I’m loving breezy summer dresses. 🤍
Warm your leftover tortillas in the microwave by wrapping them with a damp paper towel or cloth. The steam will re-soften them. You can also seal the uncooked tortillas in an air tight bag. To keep them from sticking together, use parchment paper or cling foil. Salsa is: tomato, onion, and peppers (jalapeno). Some people skin their tomatoes by parboiling, roasted, or by singeing them on a burner. Don't forget to add cilantro and cumin for authentic Mexican food flavors! I hope this helps. ❤
I forgot the garlic!
I recommend for the fried potatoes add chopped onions and fresh garlic bacon to caramelize and it’s so good!
Could you make a video on your wood countertops? What they are made of, upkeep, durability, upsides, downsides. I love your content!
If I could cook half the things you cook Delilah😅 You're such a beautiful, peaceful inspiration and example, thank you❤
I've been really enjoying these cooking videos, Delilah! They are so inspiring and great for meal ideas! ❤
I like your kitchen!
Love your videos! And i was so happy to see Josh Weissman's cookbook!
Love these videos! I have slowly started making more things from scratch as the food in stores just doesn't have our health in mind. It's so rewarding eating things that are homemade, not to mention the health benefits and you can control what goes in your system.
I make my own tomato sauce, mayo, tortillas , salsa and ALL our meals are made from scratch, as time has gone by, I dont buy any pre packaged quick meals. I have learnt tips and tricks to make quick meals at home when in a pinch. We do, however eat our one meal a week, which gives me a break, but rarely ever do we have any fast food.
LOVED this video!! so much value but also so calming and relaxing!
My family always rolled up a couple tortillas at a time in a damp paper towel and then heated them that way the moisture stays in the tortilla :)
I make homemade tortillas and for whatever reason they store best for me when I freeze them overnight and then heat them in a pan when I want to use them!
If tortillas are hard you can get a damp paper towel and pop them in microwave for a bit. Or we just keep them in a tortilla warmer. But it could also be your recipe you use
Wrap tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave! It will steam them nicely :)
If you’d like your tortillas to stay pliable, my suggestion is right after you cook each one, place it on a plate covered in a towel (top and bottom) so that they steam a little while they cool. It helps so much!
Also, don’t use any oil or butter in the pan. Just a very hot pan.
That bread loaf looks so delicious!!! Thanks for sharing all of these ideas.
For my homemade tortillas, I have success just keeping them in a ziplock and in the fridge. I got this hack from the Mexican lady who I got the rep from. You make me so proud of you.
Steam the tortillas in a wet tea towel you can use microwave for like 30 sec-1 min
I just started cooking from scratch here and there i made my first bread and fried chicken ( not the best meal choice) lol but kids loved it.
I love salsa but my husband can't eat cooked tomatoes. I started making fermented salsa, oh my so so easy and tasty. Great way to make fresh tomatoes last longer too.
We are starting to harvest our garden and making a year's worth of salsa is a must. Our 16 yr old son thinks he should eat a jar or 2 a week. 😂😂😂😂
Tortilla recipe
4 cups four
1/3 cup lard/crisco
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tbsp salt
1 3/4 cup milk and water (approx)
Mix first 4 ingredients. Add milk and water. I like to have the milk and water very warm to the touch. Mix well. Dough should be quite soft. Form into 12 balls. Allow to ‘rise’ for several hours in an airtight container.
Tortilla balls store well in the fridge for several days. I like to make them fresh every meal instead of reheating. The same dough works well to make fry-jacks. A common side for a Belizean breakfast.
Heat skillet on medium/high heat. Take a 12”x12” piece of foil, grease with some lard/crisco, press out tortilla balls with your hands, pick up the foil and place tortilla facing down onto hot skillet. Remove foil as soon as you can by lifting up one corner and peeling the tortilla off. Brown on both sides. by not using flour and a rolling pin your tortillas will come out softer).
Coming from someone who grew up making tortillas, I would say your dough looks too hard, therefore causing your tortillas to be dry and crack.
I’m not sure if you put a wet paper towel in with the tortillas when you heated that up, but that may help!
Using lard as the oil/fat in the tortilla will keep them pliable!
Delilah🩷!!!!!! Thank you I needed cooking inspiration today! Love your channel girl 🩷🩷🩷🩷☀️
For the tortillas, maybe warm them up in a wet paper towel in the microwave for a few seconds?
I’ve been making homemade tortillas for a couple years now. I agree with another commenter that storing them in a ziploc once cooled will help. You may also want to play around with adding more fat into your dough. For 666g of flour, I use 120g avocado oil and about 1 1/2 -2 c of water. , and about 17g of salt, in case you want to give my recipe a try! Also, I’m also convinced that soft tortillas are largely attributed to a very well kneaded dough, with about 30 minutes of rest time before rolling out. Let me know if you try any of my tips, if love to hear if anything worked for you!
Hi I’m new here just getting in love with your videos, I love that your videos are so relaxing and you inspire me to create a better life for my family as well I have 3 beautiful children and I might go for the fourth 😂 and for the tortillas as Mexican who love to make tortillas I usually put them in a ziplock bag to keep them soft for the rest of the week. 🩷🩷🩷
For homemade tortillas, if you are eating them as soon as you make them, wrap them in a towel as you cook them. If you are making them for later, then whenever you are ready to eat them, wrap them in foil with a few splatters of water and heat them up in the oven for a few mins!
Love these videos! It is truly inspirational! Thank you.
This was inspirational and beautiful! Thank you ❤
I’ve heard a damp tea towel keeps tortillas moist or pliable. Worth a try! Love your videos they’re so peaceful, it’s my little form of escapism 😂 x
Love this! Where are the aprons from??
Loved loved loved this video was so good. Thank you❤👍
Would you be able to link the pinky orange apron you used when you were making the tortillas? I absolutely love it and it looks gorgeous on you! 💕
William's intrest in cooking is clearly obvious!!
You are a good cook. I like your cooking.❤
I look forward to sitting down every time you have a new video come out! You're such an inspiration to me!
I have loved the aprons you wear while in the kitchen! Do you have links for them?
I love your apron! Do you mind sharing where it’s from?
love these videos so much! thank you for the inspiration 🤎🤎🤎
Ou I would love to try making this lemonade!
My favorite taco and fajita seasoning recipe is from Lisa at Downshiftology. THE BEST.
I am from france. Is it normal for you to wash the food with soap? I notice it in every video and it always raises questions for me 🤔😅
I have to say you're a super woman. I'm a mother of one, a toddler, and I would never have the energy to do 1/10 of what you're doing!
Tip for keeping homemade tortillas soft: warm them up wrapped in a slightly dampened paper towel!
What is the difference between a sourdough recipe and a sourdough discard recipe? I tried making my own sourdough starter a whilw back and it outgrew my container and made a huge mess 😂 i think i misunderstood the lady i listened to 😂😂 ill try again someday! I need a new jar 🤣
Haha! It sounds like you made a really healthy starter if it outgrew your jar 😊 the difference is that a proper sourdough recipe uses active sourdough starter (when it's still bubbly and growing) and usually waits long enough for the sourdough yeasts to eat and process the entire dough, where as a 'sourdough discard' recipe typically doesn't take as long, doesn't require active sourdough starter (so you can store and stockpile anything you discard from feedings in the fridge and use it anytime for a few months) and doesn't have all the benefits of the sourdough processing the flour to make it easier to digest. What you make also won't rise much unless you are adding something else like baking soda in. People often make cookies, pie crust or crackers with discard - it's a great way to use it up or give it the sourdough flavour :) hope that helps
Thank you for sharing!! Love your videos 😘
Keep tortillas in the fridge and put them in the toaster when you wanna eat them!
Can you share how you prewash your fruits and veggies and how you store them all?
I love your content! Its so relaxing and now that I have a baby I understand the struggles way better. Im not christian but you do you booboo ❤
Girl you are a whole vibeeeee
All looked so delicious! You gotta do homemade salsa though! It’s the easiest thing you’ll ever make and you’ll never go back to store bought. Trust me, I’m Mexican lol
Just lovely ❤
Love these videos so much!🥰
I've linked a site below I swear by Rory recipes I'm not sure how to make and hasn't failed me now I'm Scottish so this is a brittish so you may need to adjust your measurements ❤ I looked up their banana loaf recipe 4/5years ago never looked back and everyone loves it x
That apron is so beautiful! I really need one! I have been trying to cook more from scratch and my oh my it gets very messy! I get tired of wasting paper towels or going through rags so fast I end up just wiping it on my clothes 😅 where are they from? Also my 6 month old daughters name is Delilah🩷
Can you do a tutorial on how to make perogies please?
I love your family ❤
Put you some green peppers,onions and smoked sausage in with your potatoes and fry together 😋😋
Where did you get your white dress with little flowers? So pretty! I would love a summer wardrobe video! 🥰
You should invest in a tortilla press, it's going to be a game changer.
How do you get your tortillas so round? I find that everytime I go to make them they always look odd shape.
I have trouble getting them round too. I did notice after each time she rolled the tortilla she turned them 1/4 turn. I wonder if that is the trick to getting them round.
For the tortilla issue: maybe try getting the tortillas wet first before warming? My boyfriend will actually run each tortilla under the faucet and sort of massage the water into it before microwaving or heating on the stove, and it actually works pretty well!
