So I have been trying to make my own tortillas. I’ll found a recipe online that was flour, water, oil, and salt that seemed decent but wasn’t very good. I essentially made tortilla shaped crackers. I’m high altitude, but with nothing rising I’m not sure that matters? Anyone have a good recipe they can share? I’m kinda going for authentic styles that you would get at a taco shop.

Thanks!

    Water, oil, salt, flour is basically the recipe for crackers.

    You need to add leavening and use lard or vegetable shortening.

      It’s also the recipe for some types of bread. The difference is in the ratios and how you apply heat.
