I just made them and they were amazing! I wasn't sure how they would come out so I halved your recipe and in case anyone here was wondering it's 3 cups of all purpose flour 1/2 tbsp of salt 1/2 tbsp of baking powder 1/2 cup of shortening 1 cup of hot water Thank you so much for the recipe and video! I hope you make more videos 😊
I agree! These are the only tortillas I make now. I sometimes have to come back to get the recipe because I don't make them often but this is my go to video🥰
I am going to make these today - they look DELICIOUS! I tried making tortillas using another recipe on YT but they came out hard (softened once heated but still...). I am sure that Christine's tip to use VERY hot water is the key to soft tortillas because that is how I make very soft cakes - I use BOILING water. Works like a charm every time. ❤ A FEW HOURS LATER UPDATE: I just finished making them and my Dad and I had one each. These tortillas came out P-E-R-F-E-C-T-L-Y - so soft we thought we were eating pillows from heaven. So glad I found this recipe! Thank you so much! ❤❤❤
Such a great video. There's no substitute for experience - and you can tell she could do this in her sleep. She gives such sage advice for anyone in the kitchen - "it doesn't have to be perfect - you're going to eat it!" Love her attitude. Lucky family of 6 to have this woman in charge of the kitchen. Thank you for posting this great video!
Yo soy tejana y sus tortillas son como las que mi mama y mi abuela habian cocinado; se me via olvidado la receta. Gracias, gracias, muchacha! Nadie en youtube las hacen como tu. Tambien digales como hacerlas redondas: darles un cuarto de vuelta después de rodar. Que Dios te bendiga hijita.
👀👍🏽😍- Oct/2023-wishing you to keep on making video’s! I see your already past 10k viewers! That’s how much people feel comfortable in your kitchen to a great homemade cooking mom!
Are you saying that one kind of person is inherently better than another kind of person at a given thing? How are we supposed to feel about that statement, Selina?
@@adamchurvis1Albiet you may may have pointed out a person"s racial assumption of who can make food better than the other but I'm willing to bet that all your favorite restaurants aren't being cooked from the racial derivative of the style food being made. At the same time though, she's not wrong in her statement either. I can't tell you how many times I've yelped mexican restaurants only to see and taste that a highly americanized (recipes from white people) tex-mex or mexican food. You can literally taste and see the non-authenticity and/or bland food more so because that's the culture one has been brought up on. It would be like you saying, "ex.....Finally someone of non-color making a video on how-to Ambrosia Salad with extra sour cream" and you could relate because you grew up eating and you might get a lot shit for saying that but you wouldn't be wrong in your statement. Now, in no way am I saying that only Mexicans are better at making tortillas than anybody else but when you can literally compare this to that of what you can heavily compare to and remember. Especially down to the part where she says use your time wisely and chopped up some potatoes. LOL.

Great recipe ~ I was out of store bought ~ panicked ~ checked you tube ~ I won't be buying store bought after this tortilla recipe!!! Thank you Christine ~ saved my day!
So sorry to see that you don't have any more video's. Those were expertly done and your camera person was good to...Hope everything is going well for you and your family!
Hi I am originally from Corpus Christi Texas and my Mom use to tell my I had to knead it until the bowl was clean miss her and Texas love this video you should make more please God bless!!
Thank you so much!! For teaching me to make the best tortillas and traditional rice of my life!! It's been a game changer and brought so much joy to me and my family! I reference these videos whenever I need a refresher and always pick up a tip I missed before 😊 you are an angel for making the time and effort to teaching what you've lerned💗 hope you are doing well Christine!🌷🌿
This reminds me of being a little kid in the late 70's when my sister used to make them for her husband,and the was nothing as good a warm tortilla with just butter.
Gracias! This reminds me of the good ol days watching mi abuelita making them at home. Every day 5 oclock in the morning, fresh daily.I never made them, so sorry I didnt pay more attention.But this is like watching it all over again. Thanks for the video and may god bless you. I'll give you an update after my first batch!
these take practice, if the dough gets to sticky add more flour and if the dough gets to dry add more hot water, I will never forget that advice...love ur demo... :D
One of my favorite cooking videos of all time. I could watch this Lady all day. I love that she doesn't have thousands of kitchen utensils but she still makes awesome food :-) I will be making tortillas her way this week!
This recipe and instructions are perfect. I have tried several recipes over the years and have never been able to make them good enough to satisfy my family. However, I utilized your recipe AND your tips. They LOVED the tortillas! The were delicious, pliable, and tasty. They ask me to make them all the time now. I am so grateful that you took the time to make this video.
I really wish you'd make more video's!! I've always used a press but HEY I got brave LOL and started rolling and I like it much better. PLEASE come back!!
Thank you!! I started making tortillas at the age of 7 I learned to make them like my Mom soft and wonderful. In 2005 My Mother passed away and I stop making the tortillas. I tried to make them two weeks ago and the dough turned out terrible. I couldn’t believe that, after years of making them I couldn’t make them. I saw a lot of videos but, there recipes were so different then mine. Then I saw yours and I said, thank you God that’s the perfect one. You make them just like Mom. Thank you for taking the time to put out your video. Hav a wonderful day. Yes you are right the hot water makes all the difference.
Christine, you have a wonderful and easy way of giving directions. I really think you need to make more videos because I have a feeling you can cook just about anything. You have such a confident personality that no matter what you demonstrate will be delicious. I've subscribed to your channel and hope very soon to be seeing more videos. Take care, Anna :)
I loved watching you make your tortillas. You remind me of my neighbor years ago (1965) she taught me how to make tortillas and you make yours almost exactly the way she made hers. I was young and didn't keep track of the recipe and lost it. Now I'll have to try your recipe.
practice makes perfect!!!! i can imagine how expensive store bought tortillas are!!!! I buy 25 pounds of flour...and i make 500 tortillas... the cost is 50 cents per dozen when u make em at home....!!
You've inspired me to make my own tortillas, my wife is going to love you for being such a great instructor! You are such a wonderful cook and you need to make more videos showing us how to make authentic Mexican food!
You are a very good teacher, the words you choose, the way you say them. And these tortillas were a huge success with my family. Sadly I was just diagnosed a diabetic and not supposed to eat. But I allowed myself one and savored it:) I will keep making however for family and gifts. You've probably heard a million times but your look and your voice always make me think of Salma Hayek
I have tried several different peoples recipes and I have to say this one is my keeper ❤️ Thank you for making this video with all your tips!! I grew up not having anyone to show me how to cook so I have learned everything on my own tortillas has been a struggle so thanks for the tips and recipe!!❤️
I love your presentation! So cute how you say, "It's not gonna happen..." Entertaining and made me try my own hand at making tortillas. Que sabrosas me quedaron mis tortillitas!!!
thanks for this...I'm Turkish and have a texmex husband. I always seek to impress him and the first time I made tortillas he liked them, or at least he said he did lol, then when my sister in law visited us I made them again to impress here and the first thing out of her mouth was that they where disgusting and she would not eat them, and her husband also did not like them. I was so sad not having to have impressed them. Now next time, I will try this and show off again and let see if it meets her moma's standards. They use some sort of Mexican flour mixture that's already prepared, so I like that this is made from scratch. Keep teaching me (-:
I hoped you next batch impressed your sister-in-law. Next time you visit her ask her to make you a Turkish dish and see how she good she does. I was raised in California and was lucky to eat at the homes of a lot of Mexican friends. I love tortillas, the first 12 or 13 batches I made could be rated from yuck- to- passable. After that they started to get better and I do a pretty good job now. It is not just a recipe it is a "knack" at that comes with making them.
Grandpa Can Cook Yes you have to make them often to get the knack !! My Sister, 1st try at making Tortillas & came out perfect! She obviously just had the gift
Don’t worry about impressing. If they don’t like your tortillas they don’t need to say it. Instead, they should have offered to give you advice on how to make them better!! The flour you add water to, are not authentic. At least, u put forth effort and that is all that matters! Keep practicing and you will master the technique. Don’t give up. It takes lots of practice.
This is by far the best video I've watched on how to make tortillas. I loved that you were so detailed on how to make the balls and everything. Thank you so much!
You're one of a kind momma!☺ After trying and looking for so long for a good flour tortilla recipe I finally found yours. 🍽 🌯 Pleeease, please make more videos!!! Show me how to make carne guisada?
I had a friend that made tacos with meat, potatoes, peas, etc wrapped in a flour type shell, and she would then fry it. She said it was a Mexican taco (she was Mexican) and I have never seen anyone make one like it- it was awesome. Have you ever heard of this recipe? Thanks for your video-reminded me of my mom teaching me the first time to make dough. A lot of trial and error but worth it in experience.
I used your recipe and premixed the ingredients tossed them in my back pack with 2 packets of butter flavored Crisco which was added later at my "high camp" in New Mexico over a camp fire . The tortillas turned out Excellent & Thanks ! . P.S. You are drop dead gorgeous Christine . Lefty
I like your style and attitude, "regular flour, don't go all out" oh, and "you're supposed to tap it, run it off, that's too much work" lol. That's exactly how I do things in the kitchen and my food always comes out fine. Anyways, thanks for showing us how its done. I really like pozole and menudo and my favorite thing to have with its is slightly warmed flour tortillas with a little butter on them. I am still trying to get my pozole down(I am not latino), so, if thats a fav in your house.....you got to post a-how-to......plzzzzzz.
Ms. Christine, thank you for your recipe, I lost it and I couldn’t make tortillas! I tried a lot but they were horrible, today y found you again and by golly right away I made them and yes that’s how you do it!! Thank you!!
Great Video. Reminds me of when i was a little boy sitting with my mom while she made them. Watching you gave me what i needed to remember how to make them, and when she measured the ingredients, it was with her hands.
I grew up in San Antonio, and your video made me homesick. I will use your method to make my wife some flour tortillas. Thank you for making and uploading this.
This was the best tutorial for tortillas I have ever seen. I like that you kept it very simple and were yourself . I can't wait to check out your other videos and also to make these. That will be today. I am making fish tacos. :D
Thank you Christine. Great video. And You do a wonderful job of explaining everything plus I truly appreciate you sharing so many tips to help me avoid the common mistakes inherent in making tortillas
I love this video! I watched it about 8 1/2 years ago and never forgot it. I was 1 of six kids and made it for everyone and they couldn’t get enough of it. Now I’m a mom of 2 and they love it. Thank you!!!!
2 things.. I've finally found someone else that uses pipe as a rolling pin!! Thats awesome bc I've been doing it for 15+ years and get nothing but odd looks. LoL. Next is, I agree with the other comment that I bet you cook almost anything fantastic. If you have a favorite barbacoa [a roast or real cheek] recipe or a chili stew that can be used in the tortillas, please make a recipe vid. Thanks !!
No need to refrigerate it. It can stay out for a couple of days....I've even let the masa get a tad sour and it's still good but it will be stickier so just add more flour. It you do refrigerate it make sure you take the masa out to get to room temp before rolling it out or else you will have a harder time.
Christine, i can not thank you enough for this video. I’ve been coming back to it for the past 2 years when ever i feel the urge to make special homemade flour tortillas for the family and they come out perfect with your recipe and instructions every time. Your video feels like home, reminds me of my family and the authentic flavor that comes with it. Gracias a dios for you, you are amazing. 🤍🤍🤍
I just wanted to let you know for the last past year and a half i have been watching this video of you making tortillas, and now I've become a regular maker :-). I put a little twist to your recipe, and put olive oil in place of shortening, and it comes out just as good. thanks again!
If you're asking about the olive oil, yes I did. It comes out just as good, and it makes me feel a tiny bit better of myself just because its not manteca lol :)
I know this is an old video, but thank you for giving such an awesome presentation. I love homemade tortillas, but I don't know anyone around here that can teach me. Haha! Also, you're no-stress approach is perfect! Thank you again!
Christine has the magic touch, and technique. You can tell that she inherited it from her dear mother. Keep up the good work. You make it look like fun. I will follow her recipe completely. I loved it. Just place a little diffusion on the window behind her to knock down the brightness that is blasting her right side when she backs up. Hope to view your other dishes. Thank you!!
Kristine!! I'm so happy I found you. I'm making your tortillas today but I wanted to ask how do you store the other half of the dough you will use for another day? fridge pantry freezer? I love your channel make more please! you remind me or my aunt love your attitude and your expressions lol "your gonna eat em anyway" lol gracias saludos!
I have watched so many tortilla recipes and you were the only one who explained the need for very hot water , so I used your recipe and I had perfect tortillas, well they were different shapes but the touch and taste was perfect . Thank you and bless you.
I LOVE your video!! I also followed your recipes and it’s DELICIOUS 😋 and PERFECT!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Please make more videos!! Foodnet work should be knocking on your door.
I just made them and they were amazing! I wasn't sure how they would come out so I halved your recipe and in case anyone here was wondering it's
3 cups of all purpose flour
1/2 tbsp of salt
1/2 tbsp of baking powder
1/2 cup of shortening
1 cup of hot water
Thank you so much for the recipe and video! I hope you make more videos 😊
Thank you, 6 cups was a bit much for me.
jennifer091383 I did the exact same thing.
jennifer091383
Thank you I’m gonna try the half just like you did
jennifer091383 I did the same thing
after watching a zillion tortilla how to videos, this one is by far the best. Thank you.
Love this woman she is so relaxed and doesn't make you feel stupid
Lol. Me too!!! I know she’s got it because she doesn’t even need measuring cups! I have been doing everything wrong!
I agree.
I agree! These are the only tortillas I make now. I sometimes have to come back to get the recipe because I don't make them often but this is my go to video🥰
I agree !!!
Some people are a bore to watch. You should make more videos. You are attractive and seem very relate-able. I enjoyed your video!

I invite Christina to my place for a romantic dinner (when my wife is not home)...BUT....Christina must bring 54 tortillas with her or NO DEAL!
Watching the tutorial, makes me feel like I am sitting in your kitchen as you are teaching me. Thanks for sharing!
I loved watching you make your tortillas. You remind me of my neighbor years ago (1965) she taught me how to make tortillas and you make yours almost exactly the way she made hers. I was young and didn't keep track of the recipe and lost it. Now I'll have to try your recipe.
So far u are the best teacher in making flour tortillas it's those minor details that make a difference thank you
practice makes perfect!!!! i can imagine how expensive store bought tortillas are!!!! I buy 25 pounds of flour...and i make 500 tortillas... the cost is 50 cents per dozen when u make em at home....!!

Thank you I’m Mexican and usually look for the Spanish channels pero they were talking que kilos gramos etc ! So glad I found you saludos desde fl !
I need a women like her, straight forward, no nonsense seems that she has it all figured out. I think im in love.
You are a very good teacher, the words you choose, the way you say them. And these tortillas were a huge success with my family. Sadly I was just diagnosed a diabetic and not supposed to eat. But I allowed myself one and savored it:) I will keep making however for family and gifts. You've probably heard a million times but your look and your voice always make me think of Salma Hayek
You are GOOD! You are a natural,Love your cooking.
I like the way you explain things, plus you're easy on the eyes.
Great video 👍🏼
I have tried several different peoples recipes and I have to say this one is my keeper ❤️ Thank you for making this video with all your tips!! I grew up not having anyone to show me how to cook so I have learned everything on my own tortillas has been a struggle so thanks for the tips and recipe!!❤️
I love your presentation! So cute how you say, "It's not gonna happen..." Entertaining and made me try my own hand at making tortillas. Que sabrosas me quedaron mis tortillitas!!!

Don’t worry about impressing. If they don’t like your tortillas they don’t need to say it. Instead, they should have offered to give you advice on how to make them better!! The flour you add water to, are not authentic. At least, u put forth effort and that is all that matters! Keep practicing and you will master the technique. Don’t give up. It takes lots of practice.
Great video! Easy instructions! Best video I've seen on how to make authentic flour tortillas like Mom makes. Hello from Burque (Albuquerque) NM...
Best tortilla video !!
Just found your channel.. Real deal tested recipes..Great details. a pleasure to watch! Thx
You're brilliant. Just like my abuelita made them. Please make more video's, you're very inspiring.
This is by far the best video I've watched on how to make tortillas. I loved that you were so detailed on how to make the balls and everything. Thank you so much!

Great Video. Reminds me of when i was a little boy sitting with my mom while she made them. Watching you gave me what i needed to remember how to make them, and when she measured the ingredients, it was with her hands.
You have great personality! You should make more videos. Thanks for the video.
Agreed
My mom is from Mexicali and she's a master of making flower tortillas. She approves of this video. Good job!
Ick Mexicali. I shouldn't complain; I lived in Holtville for several years!!
I use this recipe all the time. I love it.
my,husband says thank u this is the best recipe the dough is moist and perfect amazing job all ur tips helped
nice! I like how you have your plates can we see how that's set up plz.
I grew up in San Antonio, and your video made me homesick. I will use your method to make my wife some flour tortillas. Thank you for making and uploading this.
This was the best tutorial for tortillas I have ever seen. I like that you kept it very simple and were yourself . I can't wait to check out your other videos and also to make these. That will be today. I am making fish tacos. :D
I have shown this to so many of my friends and kids. The best video to make the best soft totillas
Thanks!!!
I love the PVC pipe rolling pin! Thanks for the video.
Thank you Christine. Great video. And You do a wonderful job of explaining everything plus I truly appreciate you sharing so many tips to help me avoid the common mistakes inherent in making tortillas
I just want to say awesome video helped me and my daughter!! Ps. Love the music too!!!
I love this video! I watched it about 8 1/2 years ago and never forgot it. I was 1 of six kids and made it for everyone and they couldn’t get enough of it. Now I’m a mom of 2 and they love it. Thank you!!!!
please make more videos. this was great
Very good video! delicious looking tortillas!!!
2 things.. I've finally found someone else that uses pipe as a rolling pin!! Thats awesome bc I've been doing it for 15+ years and get nothing but odd looks. LoL. Next is, I agree with the other comment that I bet you cook almost anything fantastic. If you have a favorite barbacoa [a roast or real cheek] recipe or a chili stew that can be used in the tortillas, please make a recipe vid. Thanks !!
Excelente receta,, hice mis primeras tortillas, no quedaron perfectas pero será cuestión de práctica, muchas gracias, excelente tutorial, el mejor!!!
Where do you put the dough that u saved for the next meal? Do you refrigerate it?? Thank you for the video!
No need to refrigerate it. It can stay out for a couple of days....I've even let the masa get a tad sour and it's still good but it will be stickier so just add more flour. It you do refrigerate it make sure you take the masa out to get to room temp before rolling it out or else you will have a harder time.
I love the vibe in this video, so comforting! Thanks for this recipe :)
Only one video? I would love to see more!
Christine, i can not thank you enough for this video. I’ve been coming back to it for the past 2 years when ever i feel the urge to make special homemade flour tortillas for the family and they come out perfect with your recipe and instructions every time. Your video feels like home, reminds me of my family and the authentic flavor that comes with it. Gracias a dios for you, you are amazing. 🤍🤍🤍
I just wanted to let you know for the last past year and a half i have been watching this video of you making tortillas, and now I've become a regular maker :-). I put a little twist to your recipe, and put olive oil in place of shortening, and it comes out just as good. thanks again!
did you use the exact amount? one cup?
If you're asking about the olive oil, yes I did. It comes out just as good, and it makes me feel a tiny bit better of myself just because its not manteca lol :)
I was just wondering if I could substitute the crisco/lard for regular oil or olive oil and came across this! Thanks I will try olive oil
I followed your instructions and my tortillas turned out perfect! Thanks Christine!
I know this is an old video, but thank you for giving such an awesome presentation. I love homemade tortillas, but I don't know anyone around here that can teach me. Haha! Also, you're no-stress approach is perfect!
Thank you again!
Christine has the magic touch, and technique. You can tell that she inherited it from her dear mother. Keep up the good work. You make it look like fun. I will follow her recipe completely. I loved it. Just place a little diffusion on the window behind her to knock down the brightness that is blasting her right side when she backs up. Hope to view your other dishes. Thank you!!
Doing mine right now
Best tortilla video I've seen-by far!! So authentic!!
You're a master! We don't have shortening where I come from- can I use butter?
its even better with butter!
Love this video! Easy to understand instructions and down to earth teacher!
Kristine!! I'm so happy I found you. I'm making your tortillas today but I wanted to ask how do you store the other half of the dough you will use for another day? fridge pantry freezer? I love your channel make more please! you remind me or my aunt love your attitude and your expressions lol "your gonna eat em anyway" lol gracias saludos!
