Recipe Introduction


You'll never buy store-bought again.


List of Ingredients




2 C Flour
1/2 t Salt
1/2 t Baking powder
1/4 C Shortening
3/4 C warm Water



Recipe



Mix together the flour, salt, and baking powder. Cut in the shortening until the mixture has a mealy appearance. Slowly add the
water while mixing. Form the dough into a ball. Place the ball on a floured board and knead until firm (about 2 minutes). Divide into 12 small balls. Cover and allow to rest for 30 minutes. Roll each ball into a thin 7" tortilla. Heat a heavy skillet. Cook the tortilla for
1 minute per side. Wrap in a damp towel. Serve immediately.
Makes 12 (7") tortillas.
