What's up, tortilla lovers! If you're a fan of Mexican food (and who isn't?), you know that nothing beats the taste of a fresh, warm flour tortilla. Sure, you can grab a pack from the store, but where's the fun in that? Plus, once you've tried making your own tortillas, you'll never want to go back to the store-bought stuff. But don't worry, making flour tortillas is easier than you might think. All you need is a few basic ingredients and a little bit of elbow grease. Trust us, it's worth it. Once you taste that first bite of a homemade tortilla, you'll be hooked. In this recipe, we'll guide you through the steps to make your own tortillas that are soft, fluffy, and downright delicious. Usually flour tortillas made with vegetable oil or lard, I used butter in this recipe, because..... it's more delicious. Whether you're a seasoned pro in the kitchen or a newbie looking to up your cooking game, this recipe is for you. So grab a rolling pin and let's get to work!
