Steps:
- 1. Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Rub lard into flour mixture using your fingertips until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add warm water and work dough with hands until completely combined and no dry flour is left in bowl. 2. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead until smooth, about 1 minute. Cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap and let rest for 10 minutes. Divide dough into 8 equal pieces; roll each piece of dough into a ball. Cover dough balls with a damp cloth or plastic wrap and let rest an additional 15 minutes. 3. Preheat cast iron skillet, griddle, or comal to 500°F. Place one ball of dough on a lightly floured surface and pat down into a flat disc. Using a rolling pin, roll dough out to an 8-inch round. Place dough in skillet and cook until bubbles form on top side and bottom side has brown spots, 30-60 seconds. Flip tortilla and cook until second side develops brown spots, 30-60 seconds longer. Transfer tortilla to a plate and cover with clean dish cloth. Repeat with remaining balls of dough. Serve immediately while still warm.
TEX-MEX CASSEROLE
My family loves this quick and easy casserole! This dish is spicy, but you can cut the heat of this dish by using "mild" enchilada sauce.

- After dough has rested break off eight sections, roll them into balls, place on a plate and cover with damp cloth or plastic wrap. let rest for 10 minutes.( it is important to let dough rest, otherwise it will be like elastic and hard to roll out).
- One at a time pat dough into a 4 inch circle, and then roll with a rolling pin form the center until it is thin and about 8 inches in diameter. ( like rolling a pie crust, dust with a little flour to prevent dough form sticking to the rolling pin.) Don't overwork the dough or it will be to stiff. keep rolled out tortillas covered until ready to cook.
- In a dry iron skillet or electric griddle heated to med/high cook tortillas about 30 seconds on each side. It should start to puff a bit when done, and should have a nice brown speckled appearance. Keep cooked tortillas covered or wrapped in a napkin till ready to eat.
- Leftovers are great reheated over an open flame on your gas stove. If you have leftovers.

CHEWY FLOUR TORTILLAS
This is a good recipes if you like thick chewy tortillas. They where a little thick for tacos or fajitas for my family but we did use them another time for a thin pita bread for gyros and they worked great for that. We have also used them to make mini Mexican pizzas that the kids love.

Steps:
- Stir together the flour and baking powder in a large mixing bowl. Add the salt and vegetable oil to the lukewarm milk and whisk briefly to incorporate. Gradually add the milk to the flour, and work the mixture into a dough. It will be sticky.
- Turn the dough out onto a surface dusted with flour and knead vigorously for about 2 minutes (fold and press, fold and press). The kneading will take care of the stickiness. Return the dough to the bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rest for 15 minutes. (This dough will not rise, but it needs a rest.).
- Divide your dough into 8 balls of equal size, cover them, and let them rest again for about 20 minutes. Avoid letting them touch, if you don't want them to stick together.
- Dust your work surface with flour. Working one at a time, remove each piece of dough and pat it into a 5-inch circle. With a rolling pin, roll out the tortilla, working from the center out, until you have a 7- or 8-inch tortilla a little less than 1/4 inch thick. Transfer the tortilla to a hot, dry skillet or griddle. It will begin to blister. Let it cook for 30 seconds, turn it, and let the other side cook for 30 seconds. Remove the tortilla, place it in a napkin-lined basket and cover with aluminum foil. Repeat for the remaining tortillas.

CHEWY FLOUR TORTILLAS
I found this recipe on texascooking.com. I altered it a bit to use half whole wheat, and found the dough too dry, so upped the oil content. I also use a press instead of rolling them out--far easier. These are soft, chewy, and delicious. Perfect for gorditas or fajitas, though we usually just eat them out of hand. I cook mine on my griddle, since it tolerates being heated for a long period with no oil on it. If you like large tortillas, you can divide the dough to fewer balls.

Steps:
- 1. Stir together flours and baking powder.
- 2. In another bowl, combine salt, oil, and milk and give it a good whisk.
- 3. Gradually add the milk mixture to the flour and mix into a nonsticky dough. (This will be much tougher to do by hand, rather than a mixer. You'll need to combine, then knead vigorously.).
- 4. Divide dough into 6 balls of equal size, cover, and let rest 20 minutes. (The dough won't rise, it just needs to rest to activate the gluten.).
- 5. Spritz your tortilla press with cooking spray and press each ball flat. (You can roll them out too, but you'll really need to flour your surface and it's far easier to use a press.).
- 6. Transfer the tortilla to a hot, dry skillet or griddle. Let cook 30 seconds to a minute, flip it, and cook the other side 30 seconds to a minute.

SOFT HOMEMADE FLOUR TORTILLAS
Soft and yummy! They taste like fresh tortillas from my favorite Mexican tortilleria at home in Imperial Beach (San Diego). But, interestingly, there's an egg in the dough.. and that's actually a Honduran "Baleada" variation. You can use oil (or possibly shortening?) in place of lard; they won't have the same authentic taste, but they're still good. I've tried making these with the KitchenAid and I've kneading them by hand.. perfect either way. I've also experimented with hand-pressing vs a tortilla press vs simply using my rolling pin. I definitely prefer the rolling pin method! If your result isn't as soft as you would like, use a little more lard on your hands when shaping the balls.

Steps:
- Whisk the baking powder and salt into the flour.
- Mix in egg using a wooden spoon.
- Cut in the lard (easiest using a pastry cutter, but can be done with forks or butter knives).
- Add warm water.
- Mix, then knead for 5-10 minutes until smooth (I do about 5 minutes).
- Lightly coat hands with some of the reserved lard, and then shape dough into 12 balls. It will be necessary to re-coat hands every 1-2 tortillas. The dough will seem too wet, but it's okay!
- Lightly flour your board and rolling pin, roll out into thin disks. If you're having trouble getting the tortillas thin enough, use a little more flour on your dough board.
- Fry in a dry pan (no oil) on medium high heat, flipping once.
- Keep warm in towel until ready to serve. Or keep in gallon ziplock in the fridge.
- OPTIONAL: Kitchen-Aid mixer with dough hook will work instead of hand-kneading.
- OPTIONAL: I actually prefer to cook them as I roll them, instead of rolling them all out and then cooking them.
- OPTIONAL: Original recipe instructs, after kneading, to place in a NON-metallic bowl, cover with a wet paper towel, and let rest for 20 minutes. Then again, after shaping balls, rest again (similarly covered) for 10 minutes. I usually skip these steps and think they're still great.
- NOTE: Supposedly you should try to make SMOOTH balls, tucking in the bottom similar to yeast rolls, but in my opinion, it makes no difference.

Steps:
- Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Either by hand or with a pastry cutter, cut in the shortening till the mixture is crumbly. If the mixture looks more floury than crumbly, be sure to add just one or two more tablespoons of shortening till it is crumbly. Add about 3/4 cup hot water to the mixture, or just enough to make the ingredients look moist.
- With your hand or a large fork, knead the mixture making sure to rub the dough against the sides of the large mixing bowl to gather any clinging dough. If the dough still sticks to the side of the bowl, add a couple more tablespoons of flour until the dough forms a soft round shape. The dough is ready to roll out now, but it is best to let it rest. Cover it with a dish towel, and let it sit for about an hour or so.
- Take the dough, and pull it apart into 10 to 12 balls. Lightly flour your rolling area, and roll each ball with a rolling pin to about 1/8 inch thickness.
- Place each tortilla on a medium hot cast iron skillet. Cook for about 1 to 2 minutes on each side, or until the tortilla does not look doughy.
