   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   3               cups  all-purpose flour
   2               tsp.  kosher salt
   1               tsp.  baking powder
      1/3           cup  shortening -- cubed
   1               bulb  garlic -- roasted, see note on roasting below
   1                cup  water -- room temp

The roasted garlic is an optional add-in, but tasters preferred the 
subtle flavor as opposed to none at all.

Note: How to Roast Garlic
Roasting garlic is a great way to mellow some of its bite, leaving it 
deeply flavored and super tender.
Preheat oven to 375F. Cut off stem end of one bulb of garlic to 
expose the cloves; place in the center of a piece of foil.
Drizzle 1 Tbsp. olive oil over garlic, then loosely fold foil to 
enclose. Roast garlic in oven until soft when pierced, 45-55 minutes; 
open packet and cool. Pop cloves out of their skins by squeezing the 
bulb from the base.

Makes 10 (8") tortillas
Total time: 1 3/4 hours

Pulse flour, salt, and baking powder in a food processor 2-3 times. 
Add shortening and roasted garlic; pulse until mixture resembles 
coarse crumbs. With processor running, add water, just until dough 
forms a shaggy ball, about 30 seconds.

Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth, 
about 1 minute.

Cover dough with a damp cloth or plastic wrap and rest 15 minutes.

Divide dough into 10 golf ballsized pieces; cover and let rest 10 minutes.

Roll one dough ball out on a lightly floured surface into an 8" 
circle using a rolling pin.

Cook tortilla in a preheated castiron skillet over medium-high heat 
until lightly browned, about 1 minute per side. Transfer tortilla to 
a plate and cover with a towel. Repeat rolling and cooking with 
remaining dough balls.
