FLOUR TORTILLAS 3 c. all-purpose flour 1 1/2 tsp. salt 5 Tbsp. vegetable shortening Mix flour and salt in bowl, then cut in shortening with pastry blender or work with fingertips until particles are fine. Gradually add about 1 cup lukewarm water, stirring until dough clears bowl. Turn out on floured board and knead 5 minutes until smooth and flecked with air bubbles. Divide in 12 balls and let stand 15 minutes. Roll each ball to form a 9-inch circle. Put on ungreased skillet and cook 2 minutes on one side until flecked with brown. Turn and cook 1 minute longer (tortillas should be soft). Serve at once or cool, wrap and refrigerate.
