Cover dough tightly with plastic wrap and allow to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. Dotdash Meredith Food Studios Preheat a cast iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Divide dough into 15 equal-sized balls. Using a tortilla press, a rolling pin, or your hands, press each ball flat between 2 sheets of plastic wrap.
