New Best Flour Tortillas

New Best Flour Tortillas by myra byanka

Heretofore, I have only used lard to make tamales; however, I experimented with using it for tortillas. They came out flavorful, fluffy, and soft. Best ones ever! Dough or cooked ones will freeze. Re-heat on a griddle or skillet for maximum softness. The microwave will toughen them.

Another appeal is the unusual and subtle flavor Swiss cheese gives to this dish. The recipe is based on one…
