INGREDIENTS

2 1/2 c All-purpose flour
3 1/2 oz Vegetable shortening
1 ts Salt
1 c Warm water

INSTRUCTIONS

Place the flour, shortening and salt in the bowl of a heavy-duty mixer.
Beat with the paddle until crumbly, 3 to 5 minutes. With the mixer running,
gradually add the warm water and continue mixing until the dough is smooth,
about 3 minutes.
Divide the dough into 8 pieces. Roll each into a ball and place on a baking
tray or board. Cover with a towel and let rest at room temperature at least
15    minutes or up to 1 hour.
Cut out eight 12-inch squares of waxed or parchment paper for stacking the
tortillas. On a lightly floured board, roll each ball into a 10-inch
circle, and transfer to a paper square. Stack on a baking tray or platter
and refrigerate until cooking time. Uncooked tortillas can be kept in the
refrigerator, well wrapped with paper squares between the layers, up to 2
days.
To cook, heat a dry griddle or 12-inch skillet (Teflon is great) over
medium heat. Carefully peel off the paper and cook the tortillas one at a
time, until puffy and slightly brown, 30 to 45 seconds per side. Set aside
to cool slightly on a towel-lined platter. Bring to the table wrapped in a
towel for warmth, or wrap well and refrigerate or freeze.
Yield: 8 large tortillas
My Notes: It is not possible to roll the dough after mixing, it is too wet.
Place spoonfuls of dough onto a lightly floured long piece of waxed paper.
When ready to roll, have an extra 1/2 - 1 cup flour handy. Lightly flour
dough "glob" and gently roll dough in flour with your hands. Place on
another piece of ligbhtly floured waxed paper and roll to paper thin and
beyond. This is important because the tortilla will thicken when cooked.
Gently peel uncooked tortilla from waxed paper. When cooking, make sure the
tortillas have brown cooked patches on them or it will be undercooked.
