Today I recreated my popular Soft Flour Tortillas video to try and answer some questions you guys had from the last video. I also weighed the ingredients to give you a more accurate recipe. Shelf life for these tortillas is 24 hours. They will start to dry out and will not reheat well past 24 hours. MAKES 12 to 14 tortillas.
INGREDIENTS
3 cups all purpose flour (400 grams flour)
2 tsp baking powder (7.5 grams baking powder)
8 oz hot water (236.59 ml water )
1/3 cup lard or shortening (65 grams) *use only 1/4 cup (59 ml) if using oil
1 tsp salt (5 grams salt)
King Arthur Unbleached AP Flour

TIPS FOR SOFT TORTILLAS
*Be sure the dough is moist and tacky before kneading.
*IF dough is too wet add flour one Tbsp at a time until workable
*Be sure to knead for 5 to 10 minutes dough should be smooth and soft after kneading
*Be sure to rest for at least 15 minutes to allow the gluten in the flour to relax which helps the tortilla to bubble while cooking
*Try to roll out your tortilla thin
*Over use of flour during the roll-out process may change the texture

Why are my tortillas hard
How to make Flour Tortillas
Como hacer tortillas de Harina
Soft Flour Tortillas
i just don't understand why 393 viewers gave you a thumbs down.. they must be miserable people who are super jealous of remarkable gifted people like you. I can hear your kindness through your voice. My best to you always little lady. Thank you for your informative videos!
Thank you! My step children's Grandmother was Hispanic from Mexico! She taught me how to make tortillas and so many awesome dishes! You do it like she did and was thankful to find you. Because I needed a fresher course! My family are very happy to be eating home made tortillas again! It actually helps my arthritis too! God bless you! Pastor Linda Susan Brown
I can't believe you went out of your way to re-film this recipe with more details for your fans! You're awesome thank you so much!
Thank you! I have been meaning to do this for quite some time. I finally got to it. 😊
I really appreciate you not cutting away, I am definitely a "go by feel" kinda cook (must be latina thing) and it makes much more sense to see what it should look, feel like and not just read a recipe and see the final product! Well done. I going to give a try! Fingers crossed.
aznamethyst
She is ! Wonderful !
Love all of your detailed instructions 😁
Right!! “Out of her way” is an understatement!!
I did it! Third time is a charm! So happy they finally came out great! Figured out that the heat was too low and I was rolling them too thin. Now to get the corn tortillas under my belt! Thank you!
I am trying this tomorrow,...that's very cool you let the kiddos help I remember doing tortillas with my grandma all the time. We had our own rolling pins at her house lol. God bless you
Impressive. Thank you. We use to make these about 40 years ago when kids were growing up. Time to do it again. Thanks for crystal clear instructions. I’d forgotten how I made these.
Thanks so much for slowing things down. You helped to encourage me, a beginner who loves flour tortillas
Every baker has a different way of kneading !All good 👍
You are awesome, Mama! I used to measure my ingredients and then I discovered for myself the power of weighing. I say you are awesome because I see that you care! This us an excellent video. You could have stood your ground with the weights and left those who for now are measuring to figure it out. But you really stepped in and helped. God richly bless you! I weigh, but I found this video so helpful and caring. I will be making the butter tortilla today for my neighbors.💯❤👍🏻👏🏻
You are so welcome! I appreciate your kind words. 😊
Thank you for all your help! I am a Texas girl who LOVES all things Tex-Mex and homemade. I have ALWAYS wanted to try to make my own tortillas. We live in Colorado and I just can't stand the packaged ones! Today is the day, thanks to you!! This has been such a Wonderful tutorial. 🤞🏼 I can do it!
You absolutely can! Now I think someone posted a comment about the elevation in Colorado that will effect the tortilla process. I may have pinned it somewhere here on the comment section. I think the key is to add more water or raise the heat level. THank you btw! :)
Thanks so much for doing this for dummies like me.😄👍
I've made some from the first video and my dough did come out a little tough and not tacky. I'm going to try and fluff my flour and baking powder to see if my dough comes out much softer. My goal is to definitely get them softer like how my grandma use to make them. I love your videos and how precise you are with measurements. Thank you for this video and like you said practicing continually does help.
I wish I could have watched and help my grandma more with her recipes. My grandma used to make the best chicken mole, I don't remember her recipe. I was wondering if you could do a video on chicken mole. I've watched so many different youtube videos but I see alot of folks using so many different ingredients although nothing is wrong with that; I just remember my grandma only using a few. Always a pleasure watching your videos
Your tortillas look delicious! Thank you for making this video and sharing it. Blessings!
So glad to get the exact measurements. When I was growing up n I’d get home from school my Mom would have the balls made already and covered. She would say the balls are ready to be rolled( that was my chore before dinner). I can make a perfect round tortilla but not the dough. I love the smell of tortillas cooking. When I’d make the dough, tortillas came out like crackers so that discouraged me from making it. Thank you🙏🏼
Hola, soy de Matamoros, allí la proporción es de un kilogramo de harina por 250 gramos de manteca una cucharadita de sal y agua tibia dependiendo de la humedad del ambiente.
Tengo casi cincuenta años que me vine a vivir a la Ciudad de México y aquí batallé hasta encontrar las proporciones.
Tres tazas de harina, dos cucharadas de manteca y aproximadamente una taza o un poquito más de agua HIRVIENDO, ocasionalmente le pongo 3/4 de cucharadita de royal pero realmente no hay mucha diferencia.
Suerte para las que viven en lugares de mayor altitud sobre el nivel del mar 😋
Muchas gracias por tu comentario. Me encantaría probar la receta de tortilla de usted. 😊
@ Yo vivo a 14 metros sobre el nivel del mar, entonces sigo esta receta tal cual?
Gracias por su comentario. He visto su región en 1994 a las estudias de verano a la Universidad Iberoamericana durante mis años de cincuenta. Fue mi cuarto año de estudios de español, me encanta. Ojalá que tu estas tienes buen salud. Feliz de Pascua. 😎♥️💃🏼
Thank you so much for this video 🥺 I tried your older one and yes the tortillas definitely came out dry and hard with no elasticity
Simply Mamá Cooks
THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR TALENTS , BEST BLESSINGS .
I don't know who put thumbs down but bottom line they're haters. I tried and love❤ your tortilla recipe and all I can say is, thank you for taking your time out and sharing with us. Keep the recipe's coming👍
*perfect* recipe!!! I've made flour tortillas before, but they were always a bit dry/tough and sometimes too bland. I really appreciate gram measurements -- it helps a lot when measuring things like flour that measure very differently depending on which way the wind is blowing, and also with salt. I used Diamond Kosher salt, & using the weight measurement, they came out great. thank you so much! subscribed *and* my notification bell is on. Korean and Mexican foods are my absolute favorites.
I just now made these and they came out soft and wonderful. Thank you for teaching in such a simple way!
Trying your recipe from your original video and happened to watch this one in the process to see how it may have differed. I love old school cooking, but I am not a hand kneader. I did it in the stand mixer. I find that 3-5 minutes for kneading most breads is sufficient. In this case I did 4 and the dough came together perfectly. I will edit once I cook them, but I’m certain 10 minutes will overdevelop the gluten for almost any bread in a stand mixer. I typically use half the time needed from hand mixing and I’ve always gotten pretty solid results.
You are my Go To Mexican food chef. Your recipes are easy to follow and always taste great. Thank you so much for sharing your love 💘. God bless.
Excelente forma de explicar súper claro
I made these today and they turned out perfect! So soft and yummy. Thank you for all your videos, your voice is so soothing and they are very informative. I could eat Mexican food every day but I keep to about 4 meals a week so I will probably try all your recipes in the future
I LOVE your tutorial! I love all of the minutest details!! It REALLY helps! Thank you for caring AND sharing ❤️
i made them today and they came out perfect!! even better then my mother in laws and hers are good. these are so soft and delicious. thank u for sharing your recipe 💕
Thank you . Great video. Clearly explained and unpretentious. Keep up the good work.
This second video is Perfect!!... & your Voice is Perfect also! 😉🙂.THANK YOU VERY MUCH!..BTW I got 14 tortias also.. 🤣🤣
I'm glad you said Buttered Flavored Crisco. Walmart is out of regular crisco. I'll place an order now.
Thanks for this other video. Helps that you modified it a bit. Will give it a third try since my last two batches came out dry and I used very little flour.
Big hopes. Thanks.
One thing I have noticed and gotten results from doing is.........................when you think they rolled thin enough, they are not. You can almost see through hers, that bit helped me a lot.
Where was this last night! I followed your first tortilla video last night and I had some issues. I found this one today and followed it for some breakfast tacos and wow! They came out so much better. I didn’t get a lot of bubbles so I’m going to work on it more and see what else I can do. Texture and flavor was great though!
Thank you so much, this video helped me perfect my family recipe with your tips. My tortillas were coming out too thick & breaking. Now they are perfect. Looking forward to more of your videos.
Hi Maria tried your recipe butter tortillas . oh so yummy and thank you for the recipe .
Thank you for the update. I followed your previous video. This one helps clarify the process.
Thanks from germany.
I'm gonna make this.. thank you. You are such an inspiration!
I made your charro beans and tortillas, delicious! The first time I made the tortillas they didn't didn't come out floppy like yours after rewatching your video probably a dozen times I thought the only thing I could have done wrong was not kneed it for long enough, made them again tonight and they came out perfect
Can't wait to try these out
Hi there Mama😘😘😘 just want to ask about how to store it properly and how to make it by bulk? Thank you so much and Godbless always. I really appreciate your effort of you explaining and not cutting down the steps on how u make it.. more videos and more power. Keep inspiring us. 😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️😇😇😇
I’ve tried this recipe at least 5 times and they come out hard all the time I’ve tried it all step by step... God forbid my life ever depends on me getting this right
Its either too much flour or too cool a cooking pan. I cannot make the standard pakistani flat bread which is a staple. Always hard. Somehow this one came out soft 🤣
Keep trying. There is hope for the likes of us.
I seen a comment that said if ur hands are naturally warm then u may want to knead the dough for less time versus someone with naturally cold hands
Unbleached flour, mixed dry ingredients well, warm to hot water, no extra flour whn kneading. I think the biggest secret is the flour, also aireate it (mix n fluff b4 measuring).
They look exactly like my mom's. Can't wait to try your recipe. Thank you for posting this video!
Thank You...Success!! Very clear instructions. Mine were not as large - I ended up with 18, they were all soft pliable and delicious. I’d forgotten the long kneading and baking powder, other recipes didn’t include. I do use good lard and the round cast iron grill on an electric stove, my medium high was too high, did burn one. Munchisimo Gracias ;)
BTW Your previous video was just as clear and concise.
That's great! Thank you for the feedback. I appreciate it! 😊
Thanks for sharing this video again I watch the first one I don't know which one was first cuz I didn't really pay attention to the date but this time you measured everything out I do notice that but thanks so much for sharing it I will like I said be making these tortillas just saying
One day I will perfect these lol. Thank you!
Hi good night watching your video like every bit of your recipe I made the Cinnamon roll and also the tortilla they came out really good thank keep sending
One word sums up this video; BUTTER 😃😆😍🤗🙃😙
Thanks for this video. Our tortillas came out really good. I really appreciate you! Happy holidays!
Your tortillas look yummy, I'm certainly going to try to make them myself. Thanks for this helpful video 😀👍
I just wanted to thank you for this video! I tried it and they turned out awesome!
I'll never buy tortillas again!
Love your recipe! Will the dough keep if I refrigerate half overnight?
I LOVE your channel so MUCH!
I made these and although they were delicious they didn’t bubble when I cook them and some came out a little harder than I would’ve liked but I put them in a tortilla warmer and they all got really soft so not sure what I did wrong I guess it takes practice.
Thank you for the wonderfull tortlla
Cant wait to try this :) Thank you
Outstanding!
Thank you, blessings 🙏💗🌷
Thanks!
U r amazing!!!! Thank you for this video!!!
I made this and the tortillas were hard and falling apart..although VERY good flavor. Can you tell me what ingredient I didn’t add enough of or which one i added too much of to get that result?!
Good job and cute little son you have
Beautiful video, eloquent, and I cannot understand the 102 dislikes at this point..... Awesome!! Subbing now.
Hello and thank you for sharing. I ran your original recipe just now and came out with some seriously amazing tortillas, thank you.
Question - have flour tortillas ever been made with yeast instead of baking powder? I know it would at the very least be a much longer process of resting the dough.. what are your thoughts? I'm circling around is that baking powder as we know it was invented in 1843. Does the flour tortilla predate that? Corn sure does, but that's a different creature.
Just try it and let us know! 😁
IMPORTANT QUESTION ON KNEADING! What if I don't NEED the DOUGH, I just really really want it.
😂😂 took me a minute 🤣
Even though this video was posted a year ago. Out of every tutorial I have watch to learn how to make tortillas de Mano ... this specific video I have finally achieved a soft great tasting tortilla 🥰🥰
What oil would I use? Vegetable or canola?
If I use oil, how much should I use? The same amount as I would shortening?
After you’ve already made the balls and let it rest, can you go back and add water and redo the last steps? I watched your last video before this one :/
IM A NEWBIE MAKING TORTILLAS, BUT YOUR TUTORIAL VIDEO TAUGHT ME WELL & I AM ENCOURAGED TO MAKE MY OWN...
THANK YOU ~ THANK YOU ~ THANK YOU

🙏 GOD BLESS YOU & YOUR FAMILY 😋

What if we don't have a cast iron? Can I use a regular pan?
Your video brought up a fond memory. My dad was Hispanic, my mom was not. When I was a young girl, they got a divorce and eventually my dad remarried to a Hispanic woman. She could not speak English, and I could not speak Spanish. But when I would visit my dad every other weekend, and we'd have dinner, she always had homemade Tortillas, beans, and then whatever meat, etc.. I always ended up making them into a few burritos, even if it was just the beans, cheese and sometimes meat. One weekend, while visiting, she asked my dad to ask me if I didn't like her cooking because I was always making bean and cheese burritos. And I laughed and said No, that I loved her cooking, and it was getting the homemade Tortillas and beans that was a delicacy to me because it wasn't something I'd get at home. Don't get me wrong, my mother was a great cook, but since she wasn't Hispanic, this wasn't in her reproirtoire. Sorry for the ramble, new to your site, but it brought up a memory I hadn't thought of for years. TFS
Haha! My sister is just like you in a way. It didn't matter what was cooked she had to make a taco. Lol! Good memories. She is still like that to this day. 😁
Toni Romero Your childhood memory was lovely to read and definitely not too long. Thank you for sharing! ❤️
wow we can kinda the same past history with fathers and their wives. Good memories.
Same here.my parents divorced when I was a kid & my mom married a Hispanic man who I loved.he was good to momma & he showed me how to make homemade mole & enchiladas.the food I ate at my daddy's was basic stuff like TV dinners & burgers
What is hisponic
So now my only question is.... where can i buy one of those bowls?
Not exactly like her bowl but similar shape and quality and low priced: Web Restaurant Store, online, Vollrath 4 quart stainless steel bowl for less than $4.00 + shipping. She shops in a Korean style store, H-Mart, in Texas. I tried to find them online without success
@@beverlyfitzgerald7675 Thanks for this info! :o)
Leese Vee You’re very welcome.
I had been practicing your recipe at home, then offered to make dinner at a friend's house the other night. I was so excited to show off my new talent! To my surprise, they had NO ROLLING PIN! (I found out after the dough balls had rested 😣) So...I used an empty 2 liter soda bottle with the label on and it worked!
AND I was not familiar with the heat settings on their stove, so getting the temperature just right was trial. BUT! Because your recipe & instructions are sooooo wonderfully explained, the torillas still came out perfect! Everyone was very impressed & very full because they enjoyed the dinner so much! Thank you from the bottom of my ❤ for sharing your time and talents with us! God bless you and your family! Hugs!
Thank you so much! That's awesome how you improvised. 😊
Who the F dosent have a rolling pin!!!?!??
@@bam2431 I didnt for the longest time. My mom never cooked when I was growing up. We literally ate tv dinners and take out ALL THE TIME. So we had no use for one. As a adult (26) I got me a rolling pin and started making tortillas and now my kids ( 9&8 ) know how to make them also. Some people just dont have one 🤷♀️.
💕 Wow ! Good job !!! I'm proud of you !! I'm planning on trying these also, and you're inspiring ! Thanks for sharing !! 👏🏼😊👋🏼
Yes! Mama is an awesome instructor!
As a kid my grandma would always cook tortilla's, way better than store bought, i used to help her make them. This video is great i'll use it to make tortilla's.
Your tortilla recipe is the best I have tried. I always make too many..but they freeze well, and I have been known to make little pizzas with them too. I never buy ready made ones now as these taste so so much better. Thanks for sharing your recipes.
maggieandbart1 yes we make pizza quesadillas. They are awesome!!
maggieandbart1
I guess you freeze them already cooked, right? And how do you handle them when they're frozen?
Lard makes tortillas or bread way more tender !✔👍⚘
Love the detailed instructions. My best friend's mom made the best tortillas--pretty much every other day. She measured everything in the palm of her hand! My friend eventually made her mom dump each handful of each ingredient in a measuring cup so she could have her mom's "recipe" 😁
Love your channel!
😂😂😂😂 gotta record that recipe.. I hope you learned it.... it was the same with my mother in law's flan. I didn't like flan until I tasted hers... and it took me years to get the recipe.❤
I found your original tortilla video a good while ago. The first batch turned out so well my family begs to make tortillas almost daily. I never had a meal with fresh made tortillas before. Absolutly amazing. I've subbed the vegetable shortening for canola oil. They turn out just as well. My kids love helping. Thank you for sharing your recipe.
Thank you! So glad you guys tried the recipe. 😊
A standing ovation for this Simply Mama Cook's flour tortilla recipe. Her measurements are with out fail, precise! This is the best flour tortilla recipe. Absolutely excellent. Thank you for sharing your culinary talent, expertise and delectable recipes. I am a follower and subscriber and as a Latino am proud to support your channel. Gracias.
I love when the tortillas puff up. I put butter on mine right off the comal and eat it up. 😋
What is a Cormal? I'm not familiar with Tortilla making :)
Buttered tortillas are so good!
YES-I grew up eatting homemade Torts this way
Cruzn vso flat griddle like cooking pan

I love this recipe they come out soft and beautiful every time. I cut my fat into the flour and then add my water and they still turn out beautiful. I even make the dough balls and freeze them and lay them out to thaw and use them as needed and they still turn out great. Love this recipe! You rock Chiquita! 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for the tip!

Cutting in the fat is a great idea. Thank you!
¡Gracias Tía! I’m a young Latina and spent most of my adolescents raised in white foster families, so I’ve recently been trying to teach myself how to cook and learn these recipes that I missed when I was younger. I’m so grateful for these videos like yours to cook along with and can’t wait to make more recipes!

Hi! I don't usually comment on videos, but I just have to say I think you are amazing!! Your kids and your husband are so lucky to have you. Your style of cooking remind me of how Grandmas used to cook everything from scratch. I love how you are not wasteful and the way you patiently teach us all with your tips and advice along the way. I have just recently discovered your channel and I have suscribed!! Thank you so much for sharing your recipes and skills with us all. You are a beautiful and generous spirit and just an awesome person!!
Thank you, this is how I like to see recipes with precise measurements.
Your SUCH a doll to take the time to shoot this video for us beginner tortilla makers!! I am extremely grateful for you efforts and wanted to say that I liked how you took the time on each step! Often, things go so quickly on demo videos and I have to go back and watch over and over. Very clear and concise and just plain old FUN to watch!! Thanks a million!!
Thank you! It's so hard sometimes to explain all the variables but I really want viewers to succeed. 😁 I hope this helps you. Thank you for the kind words. 😊
Perfection! My first time making tortillas. I love to cook and cook almost every day so I decided to expand my skills. I copied the recipe exactly and the tortillas turned out perfect. My husband loved them. Cooking temp was the only learning curve. I used a cast iron on a gas flame. Kneading for 10 minutes was the key. When I rolled out the dough I had no shrinking and was able to roll thin with no breakage. I even draped each rolled tortilla on the edge of the bowl and had no sticking nor tearing. Thank you so much for your attention to detail and easy to follow instructions. I even got 13 with one large dough ball, so should have been 14. Now the tuck/turn motion will take some practice 😉
You don't have to blame your son lol my first one always comes out messed up jk love your TH-cam videos
😂🤣 Right?! I still made it and it was still good. Lol
After using your recipe, a few times, I've found that through inexperience I didn't work the dough long enough to get it to that elastic-softy-pillowy texture, and the very best result I was able to achieve was using water so hot that it might have scolded my bare hands, and I noticed my dough stayed warm the entire time I kneaded it. The temperature of the water has been, for me, one of the MOST important steps in this process.
Oh, be careful not to scald yourself!
The elasticity of the dough comes from the right amount of kneading. Gliadin and glutenin proteins in the flour come together, they expand and form strands of gluten which we then stretch through motion. Allowing periods of rest for the dough to acclimate after kneading lets the gluten relax and become soft and pliable once cooked. I believe this is what allows her air pockets to form while cooking and giving them that great tortilla texture.
Keep your hands happy and have fun!
Bruce, Would you say the temperature of your water is 110f to 115f as for making bread?
I have found that when substituting liquid OIL for solid fat (lard, shortening) in the same quantity, it tends to get gummy. I would have to reduce the amount of the liquid oil, maybe 1/4 instead of 1/3 (?) cup. Again, thanks for your tips! I think my problem before was a little too much flour, room temperature water and a tendency to over-work the dough. BTW, LARD RULES!!!
T
this is great! I love your videos even more without the cut aways. This adds so much more detail to your already detailed videos. Thank you so very much! Being away from South Texas too long is making me homesick and your videos are helping me cook those foods that make me feel closer to home. I've been dying without my breakfast tacos :D
My mom has a boleo (rolling pin) made from a piece of a mop handle I sanded down. She has arthritis and its easier for her to use. I was laughing at the part you said how to roll them out even with a bottle. I never could get good ones made until this video. I showed my mom, since her recipe is a handful of this, a pinch of that. She told me to tell you to put foil under your burners ( like I know you personally.) I dont have the heart to tell her how TH-cam works.
Lol! That's pretty resourceful with the broom handle. Tell her I said thank you for the tip. 😄👍
Too cute
8stringmonkey LOL...You're a good son.
My dad made one for me the same way. I still need to practice this recipe until I have perfected it. Each time I get a little closer.
how on earth can there be ANY thumbs down? This recipe is perfect. Turns out a soft fluffy flour tortilla every time. And she explains it so nicely. I'm a fan. \:-)
You make them almost exactly like my Mexican mother-in-law did! She always used Crisco; said it worked just as well as lard! It must, because her tortillas were perfect, soft, pliable, and delicious! One thing she did different is as soon as she put the tortilla on the griddle, she rubbed it with her palm. She said that helped it puff better.
This tortilla recipe rocks, my tortillas came out soft and tasted great. My mom never measured ingredients when she would make tortillas, but now thanks to you I have a recipe that I can follow
So, I watched the first video and my tortillas didn't come out very well (dry, flaky), but after watching this one - which was a lot more detailed, thank you! - my tortillas are soft and delicious. Muchas gracias!
Yay! Im glad it helped out. 😄
Girl let me tell you that I made them and they came out so good. Thank you so much for the recipe .
I did it!!! After watching the video twice and getting all the ingredients together beforehand, they turned out just like yours! My problem making tortillas in the past was over flouring the work surface and not kneading long enough. By tweeking those two things these turned out soft, pliable and tasted delicious! I will definitely be making these tortillas on the regular! I made mine with butter instead of lard/crisco with no issues! Thanks for being so detailed that was the key to my success! 😊
I'm on my way over LOL I like my hot hot hot picante sauce & guacamole on my soft tacos please lol
Same here! I would use lots flour cuz the dough was so sticky and I only kneaded the dough for short time. Followed your video...and the tortillas were delicious !!
R. House when using butter do you have to melt the butter to separate it first, do you know what I mean like drawn butter or just use the butter how it comes packaged
@@pookyj4980 hey I may be a little too late but to answer your question, you don't have to melt the butter, a room temperature butter will do however I use cold butter straight out of the refrigerator as I live in a much hotter area. Hope that answers your question.
If using butter, how much would I need?
I’m so happy I found you! My family is loving all the new recipes I’ve been making. Thanks for sharing your talent.
Mama, I find flour tortillas very similar in shape and taste, except they are a lot thinner, to our traditional flat pita bread we used to have in the home land of the Middle East and the Golf area. As for your recipe and the detailing in how to make tortillas were just awesome and well done. They look delicious, good job!!
I love flat bread/pita bread. I really hope to do a video on flat bread at some point. Thank you by the way! I appreciate your lovely comment. 😃
