Same Day Sourdough Kamut Tortillas
Soft, freshly milled sourdough kamut tortillas that are warm, flexible, and ready the same day, perfect for taco night and an easy way to elevate any meal.
Ingredients
- 220 g freshly milled kamut flour
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 100 g sourdough starter active or discard
- 50 g unsalted butter softened
- 125 g warm water
Instructions
- Add the flour, salt, and baking powder to a bowl or stand mixer and mix briefly to combine.
- Add the sourdough starter, softened butter, and warm water. Mix on low, then knead for about 5 minutes until the dough is smooth, soft, and stretchy. It should feel pliable, not sticky.
- Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and divide into 8 to 10 equal pieces. Roll each into a ball, cover with a towel, and let rest for 20 minutes to make rolling easier.
- Heat a cast iron skillet over medium high heat until very hot.
- On a well floured surface, roll each dough ball into a thin round, turning and flipping as you go so it does not stick. Aim for thin, almost see through in spots.
- Place one tortilla in the dry skillet and cook for 30 to 60 seconds until bubbles form and light brown spots appear. Flip and cook the second side briefly.
- Transfer cooked tortillas to a clean towel and stack to keep warm and soft while you finish the rest.
Notes
- Roll very thin for the softest, most flexible tortillas
- Butter can be swapped with olive or avocado oil
- Store wrapped at room temperature for a day or refrigerate up to 3 days
