Flour Tortillas image

My husband's all-time favorite cuisine is Mexican and one taco night a long time ago we realized we were out of tortillas! So he started making them and we fell in love with homemade tortillas instantly. They are so soft and chewy and totally addictive. I'm always sure to make a huge batch of these because I can't resist eating some right off of the pan (with a little butter and salt!) before dinner is ready.

Time 1h20m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 cups (254 grams) all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 cup shortening or neutral oil

Steps:

  • Combine the flour, salt and sugar in a medium bowl. Add the shortening or oil and mix until mealy. Stir in 3/4 cup water to form a dough. Turn it out onto a surface and knead, adding more flour if needed, until a smooth, slightly sticky dough is formed, 5 to 7 minutes. Cover the dough with plastic wrap or a towel and let it rest at room temperature for 30 minutes. (Full disclosure: When we're hungry, we skip this step. But letting the dough rest does make it easier to roll these out.)
  • Heat a dry skillet over medium heat. Divide the dough into 8 equal parts and roll them out on a lightly-floured surface until they're really thin, keeping the remaining dough balls covered. I like a 1/16- or 1/8-inch thickness but wouldn't turn down a 3/16-inch-thick one. Cook them in the skillet on both sides until they're just starting to show some brown spots, 45 seconds to 1 minute per side. Keep warm in a towel until ready to serve.

I've tried many flour tortilla recipes, but this one is by far the best. The tortillas are always soft and fluffy.
