Homemade Tortillas\r
\r
Makes 12-14 tortillas\r
\r
3 cups all-purpose flour\r
2 teaspoons salt\r
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder\r
¼ cup shortening or lard\r
¼ cup bacon grease, cooled\r
1 cup hot water\r
\r
\r
-In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt and baking powder. \r
-Cut in the shortening and bacon grease until crumbly. \r
-Add the hot water and stir until combined. With your hands, work the dough into a ball. \r
-Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead the dough about 2 minutes, adding more flour if needed to take away the stickiness. \r
-Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let rest for 15 minutes. \r
-Turn the dough back out onto the floured surface and turn to lightly flour the outside. Pinch the dough off into pieces slightly larger than a golf ball. Work the dough into balls and then press down lightly to form a round roughly the size of your palm. \r
-With a rolling pin, roll each round out into a extremely thin circle. Repeat with the remaining rounds. \r
-Place the tortillas onto a large greased cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. As the tortilla begins to bubble flip it. As it cooks slightly pat down to pop some of the bubbles. Cook just until light brown circles appear. \r
-Wrap in a towel and place in a warm oven until you have finished cooking all of the tortillas and are ready to serve. Serve warm or at room temperature. \r
