for your shortening do you use butter/margarine or a crisco style shortening?

I did mean 1/2 cup. I sometimes have to add a tablespoon or two more, but I’ve never had to add double the water! Maybe it’s a lot more humid in my house than in yours.

I just made these and they turned out great. Nice and soft. I did need to add a bit more water but the flavor was good. Thank you.

I was curious if you meant only 1/2 cup of water. I needed to add about 1 cup.

We made these tortillas last night, and I will probably NEVER buy store-bought tortillas again! The end result was so fresh-testing, light, and yummy. We froze half the recipe and are looking forward to having tacos again next week! Thanks for sharing.

Delicious – and the instructions were so helpful! Thanks a ton – these were so much fun to make! One thing I found was that on the way from the rolling out to the pan, if I stretched them with my hands, they got even thinner and rounder…
