Whats the best homemade tortilla recipe?

I've been choosing to make my own lately because it's cheaper, and while I'm fine with the recipe I have I wondered if there was a better one out there.

I do:

  • 2 cups flour
  • 1/4 cup vegetable shortening
  • pinch of salt
  • 2tsp baking powder
  • Mix and rest for 30 min
  • cook on high makes 8 tortillas

Thoughts on this? My only gripe is that it does come out less flavorful than some tortillas I've had. I also have not had much success making spinach tortillas with this. I've read that lard is more flavorful and effective, my only concern is I don't use much lard in my general cooking, and this would be the only thing. I'm concerned that if I got a tub of lard it could go rancid before I've gone through it.

How do you make your tortillas?



bon appetit
