Tortilla kinda day…

SS! · Mar 26, 2022

Tortilla making day. If you’ve never made your own it’s super easy. Even though I was accused of being a trust fund baby I’m actually really cheap. Not only are these tortillas inflation proof they are really tasty.

Make the dough:

After a 15 min rest it came time to pull out the rolling pin. My tortillas do not come out round. I’m ok with it. If any of you guys wanna help out this trust fund kid I’ll take a tortilla press…

30 secs per side and these half round pieces of bread will help you cope with the emptiness in your heart:

Money shot:

Ah ****:

I don’t own a cast iron pan either. I know I know. Trust fund is a little light this month…

No accusation with the trust fund ask. I wish I had a trust fund. No money in my lineage. Lodge cast iron is inexpensive. Use it and you will like it.

I know I was just joking…like always. I’m planning on getting one here soon!

Try lard rendered from seal blubber. Keep it Alaskan. It does look good though.

Nice, but can you make Tamales!

You can use that same dough mix for fry bread. Just make 1/2" thick & fry in 3/4-1" of lard to a golden brown. Eat with honey or use for Navajo taco.

I pay a peso or two per tortilla in Mexico, and they beat the hell out of any I can get in the states. These look good though, I might have to try making some when I get back to the states.

The wife has some what figured it out but hers still aren’t as good as the ones we get from certain Mexican ladies around here. Tamales are a big Christmas tradition with us.

I just lost my dad last September. He didn’t leave me a dime because he didn’t have it. That’s the way I want to go out.

No snowflakes being raised here…

Sorry to hear about the loss of your dad. I’ve been truly blessed and more fortunate financially than my parents or any of my family members ever were for that matter. When I’m dead there will be leftovers. I have a 17 year old, I’m just hoping I’m raising him right by instilling solid core values so he can go out on his own and make his way in this world.
