DIRECTIONS
|
|
1:
Mix together flour, salt, and baking
powder. Cut in the lard and mix
well. Gradually add the water,
working it in to make a stiff dough.
Knead until the dough is springy.
Divide the dough into balls of equal
size; cover and allow to rest for 20
to 30 minutes.
|
|
|
|
2:
Heat a comal or heavy frying pan
over medium-high heat. On a
lightly floured board, use a rolling
pin to roll each dough ball into
a thin Circle approximately 8 inches
across.
|
|
|
|
3:
Place the tortilla on the heated,
ungreased comal. Bake until speckled
with brown (1 1/2 to 2 minutes); turn
over and bake until the underside is
speckled brown (1 1/2 to 2 minutes).
The tortilla may puff up while cooking;
if so, press down lightly with
a linen towel.
|
|
|
|
4:
Wrap the tortillas together in a
kitchen towel as they are made to
keep them soft and warm.
