"Frontier" Tortillas

(reminiscent of tortillas from your favorite UNM hangout)

4 cups flour
2 tsp salt
2 tsp b. powder
4 Tbsp butter/lard
1 cups warm water (approx)

Combine dry ingredients in a medium-sized mixing bowl and cut in butter. Make a well in center of dry ingredients. Add water, little by little, and work into a dough. Knead dough until smooth, cover and let sit at least10 minutes. Form dough into balls the size of an egg. Pat each ball as thin as possible with your hands. Cook tortillas on a preheated pan over med-high heat. Cook for approximately 1 minute on each side. (Tortilla should be lightly speckled.)
