Mix all the dry ingredients together. Then add the hot water and mix well. If the dough is too dry, add more water as needed.

Add the olive oil and mix until you have a workable dough.

Divide the dough into balls and shape them into tortillas (make them thicker for sopes). Cook on a griddle or skillet for 3 minutes on each side. For sopes, pinch the edges while still warm before they cool.
