Ingredients List
- 1 1/3 c All-purpose flour

form a stiff dough. Place dough on plastic wrap and form into a cylinder,
approximately 2 1/2 inches thick. Refrigerate at least 1/2 hour. ( dough
can be made up a day in advance). Cut dough into 12 pieces. Form each into
a ball. On floured surface, roll each ball into flat 8-inch circle. Cook on

I have made the flour tortillas without shortening and they were just fine.
I made no other adjustments to the rest of the recipe.
