4 c. flour (wheat, white, or a combination)
2 t. salt
1 t. baking powder
1/2 c. olive oil
1 1/2 c. boiling water
Whisk together flour, salt, and baking powder. Mix in oil. Stir in boiling water. The dough should be soft and pliable but not sticky or stiff. Adjust flour or water to get correct texture. After dough cools finish mixing it with your hands. Some oil lumps may remain. Roll dough out into a circle (or close to a circle). Grill the tortilla over medium-low heat on a griddle or in a dry pan. (no oil) When the tortilla bubbles up, flip it over and bake on the other side. Makes 7 or 8 tortillas. (Recipe can be doubled.) If you want it to be a pita, bake on a stone in a 400 degree oven.

I'm a can't-cook housewife but I'm willing to try some recipes once in a while, one's that has explicit instructions since I'm a real dummy in the kitchen. Hopefully I can do your tortillas justice.
