(Makes 8 tortillas)

4 cups of flour

1 tsp. baking powder

1 tsp. salt

1 cup of water many substitute warm milk for a fluffier texture)

1/2 cups vegetable shortening (or lard)

Mix flour, salt, & baking powder in a large bowl. Cut in shortening/lard until lumps are gone. Make a hole in the center of the dry ingredients. Gradually add water and work mixture into a dough. Knead until smooth. The dough should be slightly sticky but not hard. You can add slightly more water or flour if needed. Cover and set aside for 10 minutes. Make the dough into balls about the size of eggs. Using a rolling pin, roll each dough ball into about a 6 inch circle. Heat griddle or skillet on medium heat without grease. Cook tortilla 30-60 secs (if it starts to bubble, that's long enough). Flip tortilla to the other side and cook for a few seconds. Continue until all your dough is cooked. Then you can eat!
