My favorite sourdough tortilla recipe!

I got this recipe online but I can’t find the link, but here’s the recipe that I screenshotted! They are to die for and are so so fluffy. You can use active starter or discard. The recipe makes 10 tortillas of the size in my pictures! I always double the recipe.

INGREDIENTS:

210 g (1.5 heaping cups) unbleached all-purpose flour

3.5g (1 1/4 teaspoons) kosher salt (originally the recipe called for 7g, but that’s WAY salty if you do it that way, so use as much to your preference)

56 g (1/4 cup) softened butter (i use ghee)

100 g water (1/3 cup + 1 tablespoon)

100 g (1/2 cup) sourdough starter

I mix the flour and butter first, making sure it gets well incorporated, it will be crumbly. Then mix everything else together.

Knead until soft, cut dough ball in half, and divide those halves into 5 pieces. Roll the dough pieces into balls and leave to rest for 30 minutes. If you have a tortilla press, use that to flatten them between two sheets of parchment paper. If you don’t, you need to manually roll them as thin as possible. It’s quite tedious, so i’d recommend investing in a cast iron tortilla press if you wanna make these regularly. Put your stove on medium head with a flat skillet. Take the flattened sheet of dough and place onto the skillet, I leave mine attached to the parchment on one side and peel it off when it’s cooked a bit so it keeps its shape. Cook 30 seconds each side, turn up the heat a little if you want it to be more browned. Too long will make them crispy.

Enjoy!
