Can roll/pat out the masa by hand in any case if you didn't have a
press. We could send you some dried masa harina for tortilla making. Or
else send you a pack of corn tortillas, which are very cheap around
here.

That same Old El Paso company makes taco kits, which I've seen in the
UK. Any of those around your place?
