Steps:
- In a food processor combine 2 3/4 cups of the flour (reserve the remaining flour for rolling out the dough) with the lard or shortening.
- Pulse several times until the fat is evenly distributed throughout the flour and no particles of fat are visible.
- Dissolve the salt in 2/3 cup of the warm water.
- With the machine running, pour the liquid through the feed tube in a steady stream and stop the machine once the dough has come together in a ball.
- Feel the dough; it should be a medium-stiff consistency, not too firm but not as soft as most bread doughs.
- If the dough is too stiff, divide it into several pieces, sprinkle with 1 or 2 tablespoons of the remaining water and process again until a ball forms.
- Divide the dough into 12 portions, roll into balls and place on a flat surface or plate.
- Cover with plastic wrap and allow dough to rest for at least 30 minutes.
- On a lightly floured surface roll each ball into a 7-inch circle by flattening the ball of dough, lightly flouring it, and with a rolling pin rolling forward and backward over the dough, then turn it a sixth of a turn and roll forward and backward again.
- Repeat the turning and rolling process until a 7-inch circle is formed, re-flouring the work surface as necessary.
- Place the tortilla on a plate and cover with plastic wrap.
- Repeat the rolling out process for the remaining 11 balls of dough.
- Heat a flat cast iron griddle over moderately high heat.
- Lay a tortilla on the griddle and cook for 20 to 45 seconds until tortilla bubbles and lightly browns on the underside.
- Flip the tortilla and cook it for another 30 to 45 seconds.
- The tortilla should be lightly browned but still soft and flexible.
- Transfer the cooked tortilla to a heavy towel and wrap it up.
- Cook the remaining tortillas in a similar manner and store stacked in the towel to keep them warm and soft.
- Tortillas can be stored in a sealable plastic bag and refrigerated until ready for use.
- To reheat the tortillas, tuck them in an"envelope" made out of aluminum foil and heat in a 325°F oven for 10 to 15 minutes.

SONORAN-STYLE FLOUR TORTILLAS
In Sonora, a Northern Mexican region where wheat has been cultivated for more than 400 years, tortillas are typically made of flour rather than corn. But unlike the generally lackluster store-bought wrappers most Americans are familiar with, handmade flour tortillas are pliable, chewy, fragrant, and dotted with mahogany blisters. While this recipe, adapted from Teo Diaz and Julia Guerrero of Sonoratown taqueria in downtown Los Angeles, isn't complicated, it does require allowing some time for the dough to rest. But the investment is worth it. Once you roll out the tortillas and set them on the hot griddle, they'll begin to puff with steam as they start to brown. When you take a bite, the aroma of sweet flour enveloped in fat will fill your nose and mouth. Finally, you'll understand that a tortilla is meant to be an essential component rather than just monotextured wrapping paper for tacos, burritos, or chimichangas.

Steps:
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, whisk together flour, salt and baking powder. Place bowl onto mixer, and affix paddle attachment. Mix for 30 seconds at low speed, then slowly add lard in a thin stream. Allow fat to partly incorporate, then slowly pour water in a thin stream. Allow dough to come together, then increase speed to medium-low and knead for about 2 minutes. The dough will be somewhat wet, webby and shiny. Place dough in a plastic bag, and allow to rest at room temperature for 2 hours.
- Divide dough into 12 pieces the size of a golf ball. Roll into smooth balls, and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cover with plastic, and allow to rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Working on a very lightly floured smooth surface, use a rolling pin to roll balls into 4-inch circles, and place onto a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer. Repeat with remaining dough, adding layers of parchment as needed to ensure tortillas do not touch or overlap. Cover last layer with parchment, and allow dough to rest 10 minutes.
- Heat a griddle or large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.
- Working on a very lightly floured smooth surface, use a rolling pin to roll each tortilla into an 8-inch circle: Start with the pin in the center of the circle and roll out to the edge, rotating the tortilla after every roll. Roll until the dough is very, very thin and the edges begin to smear onto the work surface. Alternatively, stretch tortillas out by hand, rotating and pulling gently from the edges, until nearly transparent.
- When a few drops of water dripped onto the griddle or pan immediately sputter and evaporate, the cooking surface is sufficiently hot. Gently peel the tortilla off the work surface, and lay onto the griddle. It should immediately sizzle and puff lightly. Cook, rotating, for 20 to 30 seconds per side, until lightly golden in spots. Stack in a resealable plastic bag to allow to steam and soften. Continue with remaining tortillas.
- Serve warm or use to make tacos, quesadillas or burritos.

Steps:
- Mix the flour, salt and baking powder in a large bowl. Add the butter and shortening. Cut in the butter and shortening until the flour resembles cornmeal, using a fork or your hands. Add the water to the mixture a little at a time until the dough is soft and not sticky. Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and knead the dough for a few minutes until smooth and elastic. Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces and roll each piece into a ball. Let the dough balls rest, covered with a towel, about 15 minutes.
- Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Use a rolling pin to roll each dough ball into a thin 7-inch round tortilla. Place the tortillas one at a time into the skillet and cook until bubbly and golden, about 1 1/2 minutes. Flip the tortilla and continue cooking until golden on the other side. Put the cooked tortilla in a tortilla warmer or wrap in a clean kitchen towel. Repeat with the remaining dough.
FLOUR TORTILLAS DIAZ
This recipe is based on an article in the San Jose Mercury News by Stacy Diaz. I tried it and didn't need near as much water as the recipe indicated. The dough should not be sticky. This recipe is healthier since it uses oil instead of shortening.

- Turn out onto a board and knead until smooth.
- Divide into 12 pieces and shape each into a smooth ball.
- Cover lightly with plastic film and let rest about 15 minutes.
- For each tortilla, flatten one ball into a 4 or 5-inch patty, then roll into a 9-inch round, rolling from center to edges.
- Turn tortilla often, stretching dough as you carefully peel it off board.
- Make sure these are paper thin, the thinner, the better!
- As each tortilla is shaped, place on preheated, dry, heavy griddle or heavy wide frying pan over medium-high heat.
- On a preheated electric griddle set at medium-high heat or about 375 degrees.
- Almost immediately, tiny blisters should appear.
- Turn tortilla and immediately start pressing a wide spatula directly on top of it-- press gently but firmly all over the top.
- Blisters will form over most of surface as you press.
- Turn tortilla and press all over other side until bilsters turn a golden brown; tortilla should remain soft.
- If tortillas stick or brown too quickly, reduce heat.
- Stack tortillas as cooked inside a folded cloth towel within a plastic bag; close bag and let tortillas steam and soften until all are cooked.
- Serve tortillas as soon as they are soft; or cool, remove from bag, wrap in foil, and refrigerate or freeze.

Steps:
- Heat the milk in a small saucepan over medium heat until tiny bubbles start to form around the edges of the pan (the milk should be 180 degrees F), 4 to 5 minutes. Immediately remove from the heat and stir in the lard until melted. Let cool for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk the flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl until completely combined. Pour in the warm milk mixture and stir with a rubber spatula until a shaggy dough forms.
- When cool enough to handle, knead the dough in the bowl until almost completely smooth, about 3 minutes; do not overwork, the dough should be soft and only slightly elastic and not sticky. Wrap in plastic and let rest at room temperature for 1 hour to relax dough.
- Divide the dough into 16 balls about a scant 3 tablespoons each (or 46g.). Arrange the balls on a rimmed baking sheet and cover with a damp kitchen towel until ready to use.
- Working with one dough ball at a time, roll out on a lightly floured surface to a 7-inch round.
- Heat a medium cast-iron skillet or large griddle over medium-high heat.
- Working with one at a time (unless using a large griddle), cook the tortillas, reducing the heat if they are getting dark too quickly, until air bubbles form on the surface and the bottom is brown in spots, about 30 seconds. Poke any large bubbles with a fork to release steam, flip the tortillas and cook until brown in spots on the other side, about 30 seconds. Stack and wrap the tortillas in a clean kitchen towel and keep warm. Repeat rolling and cooking the remaining dough balls.

Steps:
- Sift the flour, salt & baking powder into a large mixing bowl.
- Into the dry ingredients cut in the shortening, or add oil if you are using this option, & mix with your fingertips to combine.
- Add the milk or water, working the liquid into the dough until a sticky ball forms.
- Wrap in plastic and let rest for at least 30 minutes.
- Divide the dough into 8-10 balls (for small tortillas) or 6-8 balls for larger ones, cover them again with the damp cloth.
- Lightly dust a counter or pastry board w/flour & roll out each ball of dough into a circle or oval approximately 1/8" thick. If you want nicely rounded tortillas, trim off any ragged edges & discard. Don't roll the dough out more than once or the tortillas will be tough.
- Heat a dry griddle or heavy skillet over high heat for 5 minutes. Cook the tortillas 30 seconds on each side or until the dough looks dry & slightly wrinkled & a few brown spots form on both surfaces. Do not over cook or they will be hard. Butter and roll up and wrap in damp tea towel to keep warm as you cook the other tortillas.
- (I place cooked ones wrapped in the damp towel in a low 200 oven to keep warm, while I am cooking the rest.) Serve warm.~~.
