Tortilla Maker Nonstick Taco Shell Maker Salad Bowl Set of 4 Pack Perfect Tortilla Pan

Used these Taco Shell Makers for the first time today after purchasing here. Instead of crisping the tortillas in the oven, I instead used our Corsori air fryer, also purchased here. I was wise to crisp shells one-at-a-time this first time and that really paid off. Here is what to know.What happened with the first shell may not have happened in a standard oven, but it did happen in my air fryer and would likely have happened in a convection over. I lightly oiled the both sides of "very large" tortillas as they laid flat on a cutting board, but learned not to oil the area that will become the bottom or floor of the taco shell. I then molded them into the metal shells. Was easy to do. I used a setting of 350°F and set the air fryer for 8 minutes. Should have made an interim check but did not. When time was up I sadly found the tortilla had closed up, like a day lily or tulip at the end of a day. No way to recover as it was crisp.Undaunted, for the second tortilla I first molded it into a shell, but then I placed a second of these metal shells into the formed tortilla, sandwiching it between two shells to keep it from closing up. That worked famously! I cooked at the same 350°F setting for four minutes. Then I removed the top metal shell, being careful not to break the browned tortilla. It held its shape nicely. Then I placed just the then-formed tortilla back in the air fryer, still in a metal shell, for 2-3 minutes to crisp up the bottom. Worked perfectly. Then cooked two more. Great! (see photo).I highly recommend these. Just remember to practice with one tortilla at a time until you see the results you want, then replicate.

I have this in the small and large version. The small is the perfect fit for large burrito size tortillas. The big pans give a more opened shell. I'm not sure what would fit them perfectly. I place the shell in the pan, spray lightly with olive oil then bake for 8 minutes.

This is for the smaller shell taco shells. Very easy to bake the tortilla shells in this form. Makes a nice size for a salad. Easy to clean by hand or in the dishwasher.

Easy to use, made Taco Salad bowl and in no time it came out very good. bowl shape well during cook.

Have only used one time so far. Seem to be well made and easy to use.
