Four Ingredient Flour Tortillas

Step 1: Knead the dough

  • Dough

    • bread flour
      450 g
    • water
      , warm
      250 g
    • lard
      80 g
    • salt
      5 g

Add the flour to a bowl and rub in the lard (or butter/vegetable oil) using your fingertips until broken up.

Dissolve the salt in the warm water. Gradually add the water and mix it into the flour mixture to see how much it will absorb. You might not need to use all of the water, especially once you start kneading it together.

Turn the dough onto a flat surface and work it into a cohesive dough, then for about 5 minutes. You’re done kneading when the dough is fairly smooth and not sticking to your hands.
