  • >> Hilah: Hey, I’m Hilah. Today I’m going to make tortillas. Now you all know that I

  • love tacos but you cannot have a good taco without a good tortilla and a good tortilla

  • is a homemade tortilla. So I’m going to show you how to do it.

  • [How To Make Tortillas]

  • >> Hilah: OK. Oww! Damn it. OK! Let’s talk tortillas. Let’s get serious about it. There

  • are only five ingredients. There’s flour and baking powder and salt and oil and milk.

  • So let’s start with the flour. Two cups of all-purpose flour. I use my finger when

  • I measure things like so. And number two. All right. This is our second cup of flour.

  • OK. Done. Almost. One and a half teaspoons of baking powder. Flour tortillas are pretty

  • new by the way because I guess the Europeans just brought flour over like 500 years ago

  • or something so by ancient human standards, flour tortillas are New Kids on the Block

  • so to speak.

  • All right. A little salt and mix it up. OK, now I’m adding milk and oil. OK. Mix it

  • up. Okey doke. That is it for the easy part. Now I’m going to knead it for two minutes.

  • That means check your watch and do it for a few minutes or count to 120 Mississippis.

  • Learned that trick in kindergarten.

  • All right. So you throw a little flour down and you probably need to add flour as you

  • go and you pull out your little squishy ball. This is all kneading is, is folding and squishing.

  • Almost done. Gosh, really hard work being a homemaker and making tortillas. OK, just

  • kidding.

  • All right. This is good. It’s soft and pliable and fun. I’m going to put it in this bowl

  • and I’m going to cover it with a damp towel and set it aside to rest for 20 or 30 minutes.

  • I’m going to go for 30.

  • OK, compadres. We have now reached the second leg of our tortilla journey. I’m going to

  • take this dough. I’m going to separate it into evenly-sized balls. Probably get like

  • 10 out of this little mass here. Maybe 12 if you want to be chancy with it.

  • It’s really fun. It feels like Play-Doh. Yay! How to make one shaped like an H. OK.

  • So just roll each one into a littlecrappy little ball there and you put them on a plate

  • and then were going to let them rest for another 10 minutes, which will give you plenty

  • of time to go take like five tequila shots or wash this bowl, which is probably what

  • I will do.

  • OK. Set those aside for 10 minutes. See you later. So I’ve been waiting patiently and

  • now I’m ready to roll my little balls out into little discs and this is really fun.

  • OK. So get some flour on your board or your counter and your rolling pin, doing those

  • jobbies [0:04:40] [Phonetic], one of those jobbies [Phonetic]. OK.

  • On your little balls, flatten it out. This is totally fun. I don’t know why people

  • don’t do this everyday. I guess some people probably do. OK. Let me just start rolling

  • it out and then start in the middle and kind of press out to the sides until it’s about

  • the size of what a tortilla should be.

  • OK. Cool. Let me set that one aside. OK. I got my little tortilla babies all rolled out

  • and I have a cast iron skillet heating up over high for a couple of minutes to get it

  • super, duper hot. No oil or anything, just a dry skillet and I’m going to throw one

  • of these in and let it sit there for a couple of minutes. And it will start to puff up and

  • then I will flip it and then let it cook on that side and then we will have hot, fresh

  • tortillas.

  • So it’s getting really, really puffed up. It’s pretty cool. I’m going to take a

  • little gander. That looks great. And flip it and if there’s a big old air bubble,

  • just kind of pop it but look out for the steam because it’s super, super hot, super fudging

  • hot.

  • And let it go for a couple of minutes on that side and it should have some little crispy

  • brown, golden toasty stuff on it and that my friends is a tortilla and there you have

  • it, internet people, homemade tortillas. Hmm, so much better than anything you can buy in

  • a store including a big screen TV.

  • All right. That’s it for tortillas. Were working on a very special secret new project.

  • So if you want to be fully involved in that, sign up for the newsletter and practice making

  • yourself some tortillas because youre going to need to know how to do that. All right.
