Step:

  1. Wisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in medium bowl.

  2. Rub shortening into flour mixture until mixture is like coarse crumbs.

  3. Add warm water and work dough until combined and no flour is left in the bowl.

  4. Knead dough on work surface for about a minute until smooth.

  5. Cover or set in air tight ziploc and let set for at least 10 mins.

  6. Divide dough into 8 pieces and roll them into tortillas.

  7. Cook in a medium-high heat nonstick pan.


Ingredients

  1. 2 cups all purpose flour
  2. 1 1/2 tsp baking powder (I believe I x1.5 or x2'd this?)
  3. 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  4. 3 tbsp vegetable shortening (I'm told you can use lard or bacon fat)
  5. 3/4 cup warm water (~110 F)
