Tortillas de Harina
This is one of my favorite recipes. I grew up eating these a lot!
4 c. flour (bread-making flour works best)
1 tsp. baking powder
3/4 tsp. salt
Cut in 1/3 c. shortening
Add 1 3/4 c. of hot water, add up to 2 cups as needed.
Knead. Place in plastic bag for at least ten minutes
Roll on a floured surface until very thin.
Fry in a dry pan on med-high heat.
Store in plastic bag in fridge.
Notes: The pan should be hot enough that they puff up when cooking. I put them in a tea towel and they keep fairly warm.
Serving Suggestions: Burritos with homemade refried beans, enchiladas (red/white/green), burritos with eggs, salsa and freshly diced tomato
