Flour Tortillas updated

300g ap flour

200g very hot water (160F or higher)

7.5g salt (about 2 tsp diamond kosher)

2 tbsp avocado oil

2 tbsp lard

Mix water + salt first
Dissolve salt in the hot water before adding — more even seasoning.

Minimal knead
1–2 minutes max. Over-kneading fights thinness.

Long rest
15 minutes covered. Roll into balls and rest for 30 more minutes.

Roll thinner than feels reasonable
Sonoran tortillas should look almost wrong before cooking.

Hot, dry pan
Medium-high. 20–30 sec per side. No pressing.
