| 1. In a bowl, mix all ingredients well. | 2. Cover and let sit in a warm place for 20 minutes. | 3. Divide into 8 equal parts and let sit, covered, another 20 minutes. | 4. Roll each ball out to a 6- or 7-inch circle shape. I've found it helps to flatten each ball with your hand. Then take the rolling pin and roll from the center outwards, back and forth a few times as you go around the circle. When it starts to get thinner, take your left hand (if you're right handed) and turn the tortilla a couple inches. Use your right hand to use the rolling pin (holding in the middle) and roll from the center outwards. Keep turning and rolling until it is paper thin. | 5. Preheat a skillet on medium high heat. | 6. Place a tortilla into the skillet and watch until bubbles form. This won't take long. | 7. After bubbles form, and the bottom is lightly brown (or there are darker spots), flip over, press down once or twice, and cook for about 30-45 seconds, or if smoke appears. | 8. Cook remaining tortillas, watching carefully, and place in a plastic bag, with wet paper towels in between them (or at least on top and bottom of stack) to keep them soft and moist. | 9. Refrigerate for later or remove the paper towels and freeze. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
