FLOUR TORTILLAS 
2 c. of all-purpose flour
1 tsp. of baking powder
3/4 to 1 c. lukewarm water
1 tsp. salt
1 tbsp. shortening (lard)

Combine flour, salt and baking powder. Cut in shortening until mixture is coarse. Add 1/2 the water and work into the dough. Then gradually add the remaining water as needed, working dough until you have a smooth, firm ball. Knead several times. Divide dough into 8 to 10 small balls. Heat ungreased griddle to very hot. Roll out balls into about a 6 inch circle and cook on hot griddle, lightly browning one side and then turning over and lightly browning other side.
