Flour Tortillas

Ingredients:
2 cups unsifted flour
1 tsp salt
1/4 cup lard
1/2 cup lukewarm water or more as needed

Directions:
Place flour in a large bowl. Stir in salt. Cut in lard with a pastry cutter or use a food processor, the lard particles should be fine. Add water gradually. Toss with a fork to make a stiff dough. Form into a ball and knead thoroughly until smooth and flecked with air bubbles on a lightly floured board. Grease the surface or spray with cooking oil and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.
Divide dough into 8-10 balls. Roll each ball as thin as possible on a floured surface. Place between waxed paper if not cooking right away.
Heat a griddle to a very high temperature, but not smoking. Cook each tortilla on ungreased griddle for about 30 seconds per side.
