THE BEST SOFT FLOUR TORTILLAS (for beginners)

Here is the way I make my flour tortillas they are so good and soft! perfect to make burritos, carne asada tacos (yes you can make carne asada tacos with flour tortillas, just make them smaller) or just eat it nice and warm with butter.
FLOUR TORTILLAS
500 grs. sifted(optional) all purpose flour / I used SELECTA brand
1/3 cup vegetable shortening
1/2 Tbs salt or less
1/2 tsp baking powder
2 cups of hot water
extra flour
comal
rolling pan

    Conchita, I have been making tortillas for many, many years however I like to watch videos because you Ever know what someone else might have discovered!! Anyway, I wanted to let you know that this is the BEST EVER video on tortilla making I have ever seen. You are an extremely good instructor because you take things slow and really show people how you are doing something. I have subscribed to your channel and wish you well on it!! And telling people that the important thing is just to try, well that was awesome and I am sure it gave others confidence to try. I agree with you - I have been told many times by others that they never wanted to try to make tortillas because they wouldn’t be round, well I tell them that growing up, my family used to say mine looked like the state of Texas (where I am from). 😂😂 Blessings to you and yours.🙏🏻🙏🏻

    I just found this video today and love the little tips you threw in. I sifted the flour and immediately thought “that is much better than just dumping out flour.” Also, weighing it was accurate, the # of cups was not. And, going with the texture and water instead of just using two cups of water was spot on. I had water left over from the 2 cups. Also, rolling from the middle was a nice tip, too. Thanks so much!

But I'm glad you are sharing your way to make then, thanks again! Not criticising just sharing my experience.

    Thank you so much for detailed explanations from start to the final product and how to keep them. I tried YT version receipt and they came nice and were delicious but then hardens. It was made with olive oil, baking powder, water and flour. What I want is souple tortillas and be able to have some in fridge for rapid consume like sandwich or even pizza 🍕 support it is a great option to eat pizza and don’t get fat 😉👍 The secret is to put lard or shortening. My grandma used to cook with lard and once I made Christmas cookies with lard. I forgot them and found them 6 months later in special metal box I put cookies in and guess what ? They were perfectly fine and we ate them. Incredible so I knew then why my grandma used to cook with it. I will do these tortillas but I know that they will be perfect 👌Thank you 1 000 000 times 💕💖💕 Love from France 🇫🇷🙋🏻‍♀️🙌💫😘😘😘

    Cooking With Conchita I see the same amount of grease/butter with only 2-3 cups of flour. Interesting. Do you not need that much then?

    You probably added too much flour, try not to add more flour and also the kneading is very important

    Hi, add a little more of shortening and let it rest when you are done kneading, they do shrink a little when you cook them .

Is 500 grs all purpose flour, 1 Tb salt, 5-1/2 Tbs shortening and you need warm water. Like I mention in the video you need to start adding water until the dough is nice and soft

    Thank you so much for letting me know 👍🏼 the recipe is 500 grams all purpose flour 5-6 Tbs vegetable shortening 1Tbs salt ( you can use less if you want) Water it needs to be warm to almost hot ( you need to be able to handle the temperature) the amount of water depends on what type of flour you are using and also we’re you live ocean level or the mountains. My advice to you is add water until your dough is nice and soft to the touch 👍🏼😉
