  • • ½ tsp salt
  • • About ¼ cup water (adjust depending on flour and discard hydration)

Directions

  1. 1. Mix dough: Combine discard, flour, salt, and fat. Add water slowly until you get a soft, smooth dough.
  2. 2. Rest: Cover and let the dough rest for 30 minutes (this relaxes the gluten and makes rolling easier).
  3. 3. Divide & roll: Divide into 8–10 balls, then roll each one out thinly on a lightly floured surface.
  4. 4. Cook: Heat a dry skillet over medium-high. Cook tortillas for about 1 minute per side until you get light brown spots.
  5. 5. Wrap: Keep them warm in a towel while you cook the rest — they stay pliable that way.
