Chef notes

From scratch! Letting the dough rest matters. Don't rush it. Rolling them round is harder than it looks.

Ingredients

• Flour
• Water
• Oil
• Salt
• Baking powder

Recipe

1. 1.In a bowl, add 3 cups flour and make a well in the center. Add 1 tsp salt, 1¼ tsp baking powder, 1 cup hot water (about 105°F), and ⅓ cup melted butter.
2. 2.Mix together then knead until a smooth dough forms. Cover and let rest in the bowl for 15 minutes.
3. 3.Divide the dough into balls depending on how big you want the tortillas. Pat each ball, dust with a little flour, and roll out thin.
4. 4.Cook on a medium-high heat pan for about 30 seconds per side until lightly golden with some char spots.
