Zubereitung von Basic Flour Tortillas
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and baking powder.
- Cut in the shortening or lard using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually add the warm water, mixing until a dough forms. Do not overmix.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 2-3 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Divide the dough into 8 equal-sized balls.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll each ball into a 6-inch circle using a rolling pin. (For smaller tortillas, roll into 5-inch circles)
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- Cook each tortilla for about 1-2 minutes per side, or until lightly browned and cooked through. Keep warm in a tortilla warmer or by wrapping them in a clean kitchen towel.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
