Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups Italian flour
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 4 tbsp Butter Melted
  • 1 cup Warm Water

Equipment

  • Rolling Pin
  • Pan or Griddle

Instructions
 

  1. Combine flour and salt. Work butter into the flour with your fingers until it resembles coarse crumbs. Add water gradually and mix until a soft dough forms — soft and slightly tacky, not sticky.
  2. Cover and rest 15 minutes.
  3. Divide into 12 balls. Roll each out thin on a lightly floured surface, about 8 inches across.
  4. Cook in a dry pan over medium-high heat, 60-90 seconds per side, until bubbles form and brown spots appear. Stack under a towel to keep soft.

Notes

These are great cooked in a buttered pan, or in bulk on a large griddle. Reheat and brown them slightly on a comal.
