In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and lard. Utilize your hands, a dough cutter, or a food processor to mix the ingredients until they form a coarse flour-like texture.
Incorporate the baking powder and salt into the mixture, ensuring they are well blended.
Pour the warm water into the dry ingredients and thoroughly combine them using your hands, ensuring they are well mixed.
Once the dough reaches a state of elasticity when touched, proceed by wrapping it in plastic until you are ready to use it.
Prepare individual balls by dividing the dough. The size of each ball should correspond to the desired size of your tortillas. To achieve the basic shape, utilize a tortilla press. However, if you prefer thinner and larger tortillas, employ a rolling pin in addition to the press. Experiment to find your ideal thickness and size for your personal preference.
