spelt tortillas

• ingredients:
1 cup spelt flour, plus 1/4 cup for board
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 -1 teaspoon oil
1/3 cup water

• method:
1. Combine 1 cup of flour, sea salt, oil and water.
2. Put remaining flour on bread board or counter top.
3. Roll ball of dough in flour, flattening and folding the dough. In a few minutes you will feel the dough become more workable.
4. Divide into 4-6 small balls of dough.
5. Working on the floured board, roll or pat each ball thin, to about 5-7 inches in diameter.
6. Heat griddle. When a drop of water "dances" on it, bake the tortillas about two minutes on each side, longer for crisper bread.
7. Remove to wire racks and bake remaining tortillas.

• note:
Don't limit tortillas to Mexican dishes. Tear one in the bottom of your salad bowl. Or spread thinly with peanut, cashew, almond butter. For the peanut butter and jelly crowd, top with slices of banana.
