Cooking Instructions

15 mins

1

In a medium bowl, mix flour, salt and baking powder.
2

Using your hands blend in the shortening until mixture is a fine meal.
3

Preheat your hot plate or you can use a large flat skillet or pan. Needs to be at least 12" in diameter.
4

Add the warm water to the flour mixture and blend until it becomes smooth and elastic.
5

Pinch off about a golf ball size of dough and place on a floured surface. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough into a thin flat disc about 12" across.
6

Place on preheated cooking surface and cook until bubbles start to form in the dough and flip over. Usually takes about 45 seconds per side if you have the right temp.
7

Great to make breakfast burritos or just eat plain with butter.

These were easy to make, mine should have been rolled thinner though. I substituted butter for the shortening and added black proper for flavor. They tasted great and were fun to make. Thanks for sharing your recipe!

When you make tortillas, pay attention to the texture of the dough. The amount of water specified in this recipe is intended as a starting point only. When you know what texture you are shooting for, you can adjust the water to get that perfect texture every time.

In northern Mexico, flour tortillas are a staple for meals. They are used to make burritos, quesadillas, sincronizadas, and thicker, smaller versions called gorditas with authentic Mexican fillings. Here is my version, which is also the common version.

Soft Flour Tortillas Soft Flour Tortillas

I made a successful soft tortilla that will roll up even when cold.Roll out the dough then gently coax it spread with both hands to shape it into circles.Turn over the dough to the other side once the dough starts to puff up and is browned.Cold tortillas are delicious enough, but you can warm them up in a skillet over low heat, or lightly microwave them.
