Wheat tortilla: thin bread for folding

Useful to know

King Arthur’s Flour Tortillas uses wheat flour, fat, salt and water. The dough is divided, rested, rolled and cooked briefly in a pan to remain flexible enough for folding. [1]

The recipe offers lard or refined coconut fat as particular options. After cooking, the tortillas are gathered in a towel to stay warm and flexible until serving. Do not judge them by the crispness of chips. “Tortilla” does not necessarily mean corn-based: this recipe explicitly uses wheat.
