Mexican tortillaIngredients:
2 cups un-sifted Bread Flour,3 teaspoons Baking Powder,1 teaspoon Salt,1/4 cup Lard, chilled,3/4 cup Warm Water. For 9 tortillas
 


Method:

Mix the flour, salt, and baking powder in a bowl.  Add the lard and mix in with your fingers until you have completely crumbled it in.  Slowly add the warm water and mix with a large spoon.  Take the ball out and put on a "floured" board and knead 3-5 minutes-until elastic.  Store in a warm place inside an oiled, plastic bag for 1 hour.  Pinch off pieces of dough about the size of a golf ball (1 inch) and let rest 15 minutes.  Roll the balls into circles approximately 7 inches in size.  Cook on a HOT (450-degrees) griddle turning only once.  Remove to a basket lined with a cloth towel or put between a towel until cool.  After the tortillas have cooled completely, store them in a plastic bag. The best homemade tortillas by far!
