Abstract
Tortilla dough is shaped and precooked by being inserted in a region between the arcuate outer surface of a heated rotatable drum and the arcuate surface of a heated compression plate. The plate is pivotally-mounted and swung into position parallel to the surface of the drum to compress the dough while the drum is in a stop-phase of step motion. Thereafter, the plate is swung out of position and the drum is then rotated to cause the compressed dough to pass under the pivotally fixed end of the plate and out of said region.
