MEXICAN-STYLE FLOUR TORTILLAS RECIPE



Mexican-Style Flour Tortillas Recipe image

Flour tortillas are central to the cuisine of Northern Mexico. Rich with lard and whole milk, these flour tortillas are airy, tender, and subtly sweet.

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 6

11 ounces (315g) all-purpose flour (about 2 1/2 cups), plus more for dusting
2 teaspoons Diamond Crystal kosher salt (8g); for table salt, use about half as much by volume or the same weight
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 cup lard (115g), melted
3/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons (220ml) whole milk, warmed to 125°F (50°C) on an instant-read thermometer

Steps:

  • In a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, add flour, sea salt, baking powder, and sugar. Turn mixer to low speed and mix until dry ingredients are well combined, about 30 seconds. Turn off mixer, detach whisk, and use it to scrape down bowl to quickly incorporate any unmixed flour.
  • With the mixer still at medium speed, add milk in intervals, pouring it steadily in 3-second additions followed by 3-second pauses to allow the milk to mix in. Repeat until all the milk has been added. Increase mixer speed to high and let run until dough is smooth and elastic, 3 minutes.

  • Knead dough and form into balls.
  • Roll them out as thin and round as possible.
  • Preheat a griddle or cast-iron skillet.
  • Slather the skillet with butter -- (yes, I see other people recommend an ungreased baking surface but I like to slather mine with butter).
  • Cook tortillas one at a time, flipping when a bubble forms.
  • I then like to slather the cooked tortillas with additional butter because it makes them taste yummy.
