Super Slow Flour Tortillas

I throw away a lot of tortillas, practise you? I utilization v or vi out of a packet and freeze the residue amongst expert intentions of using them later, but I never do. Before long they are covered amongst H2O ice crystals in addition to hiding in a dark corner in the freezer.

So I late decided to instruct myself how to brand flour tortillas.
I was pleased to honour that they are really slow to brand inwards the nutrient processor in addition to really cheap every bit well. They likewise sense of savor worlds ameliorate than the ones from the store, I promise!! It is similar the departure betwixt shop breadstuff in addition to breadstuff out of the oven.


This recipe makes (8) 8" tortillas

1+3/4 loving cup all role flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons canola or vegetable stone oil (see Federal Reserve annotation below)
1/2 loving cup of hot tap water

In a nutrient processor, house the flour, baking powder, common salt in addition to vegetable oil.  Pulse several times until it looks similar coarse corn meal.

While the nutrient procedure is however running, stream inwards the hot H2O (it doesn't direct maintain to live super hot, only hot correct from the sink). When dough starts to shape a ball, halt the nutrient processor in addition to dump the mixture out on the counter.

Knead it together amongst your hands a few times until it makes a  prissy shine ball (only takes a infinitesimal or so). Cover amongst plastic twine in addition to allow it sit down on the counter for virtually thirty minutes.

Cut the dough into 8 pieces in addition to ringlet each slice into a ball (cover them in addition to solely ringlet out in addition to create i at a time).

Using a rolling pin, ringlet each ball (I don't utilization extra flour, but or thus people do) out into a large circle. Roll it every bit sparse every bit you lot can, then ringlet it fifty-fifty more. My dominion of pollex is to ringlet them sparse plenty so you tin come across the color of your counter only a little........well, mayhap that's an exaggeration, but non past times much (wink) the thinner the better

DO NOT WORRY IF THEY ARE NOT PERFECTLY ROUND,
THAT WILL COME WITH EXPERIENCE

One at a time, create on hot UNGREASED pan (I utilization my electrical griddle at 375F, for virtually i infinitesimal a side or until bubbles showtime to appear similar this
 
 
 
As the bubbles appear, really gently press them downwardly a trivial amongst a spatula. After it has cooked for virtually a infinitesimal (peak nether in addition to brand certain that at that spot are trivial golden chocolate-brown spots on the underside), in addition to then flip it over in addition to create the other side for or thus other minute. Keep them warm within of a build clean dish towel until you lot learn them all cooked.


These tortillas are truly delicious.  Now, if you lot desire to alive actually dangerously, you lot tin supplant the pump salubrious canola stone oil amongst un-healthy but over-the-top delicious bacon fat.  Talk virtually WOW!!  I don't recommend this really often, but on a exceptional occasion, you lot only direct maintain to endeavour it amongst the bacon fat, it is excellent. (Note: on the days I little bacon, I pose the bacon fatty into a build clean jam outrage in addition to continue it inwards the refrigerator or freezer).


ENJOY !!
