my favorite sourdough tortillas

using discard or sourdough starter

here’s what you’ll need:

• 100g active sourdough starter or dicard

• 100g filtered water

• 210g unbleached white flour

• 10g sea salt (click here for what I use)

• 30g ghee — butter works, too (click here for what I use)

rise time: 1-hour+
cook time: ~20 seconds each side of tortilla
total time = 1-hour & 15-minutes
recipe makes 10-12 tortillas

DIRECTIONS

1. start with adding water & starter (or discard) to a bowl. give it a good mix.

2. then, in whatever order, add the remaining ingredients.

3. mix into dough & set aside for 1-hour+ (longer it sits, more tortillas you will get out of it) — I typically let it set for 4-hours, but have also instantly made tortillas and it worked as well. They just get less bubbly when cooking if they don’t ferment/double in size.

4. flour surface & start slicing your dough into pieces (usually makes 10-12 tortillas)

5. thinly roll out each tortilla & transfer into pre-heated skillet. I prefer to oil mine with bacon grease, but any high-heat friendly oil works!

6. MAKE SURE THE PAN IS HOT!

7. let the tortilla cook on each side (~20 seconds or until it bubbles) then flip.

8. repeat for each tortilla & enjoy!
