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!

    You don’t need shortening or lard ( though lard is certainly more traditional), oil should be fine. You do probably want some baking powder in there, but if you are ending up with a cracker its likely the method and not ingredients that are the problem.
