For a richer flavor, consider using a high-quality butter or even clarified butter. Experiment with different types of cheese to find your favorite combination – Monterey Jack, pepper jack, or even a sprinkle of cotija cheese would work well. Don't overcrowd the pan. If making multiple tortillas, cook them one at a time for best results. A dash of hot sauce or a dollop of sour cream can add an extra layer of flavor.
