  • 1/2 cup sourdough starter discard
  • 1/4 cup olive oil

  • 1/2 tsp sea salt

Preparation
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sourdough starter discard with olive oil and water.
  2. Gradually add the flour and sea salt, mixing until a dough forms.
  3. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes on a floured surface until smooth.
  4. Divide the dough into small balls, roughly the size of a golf ball.

  2. Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook each tortilla for about 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  3. Stack cooked tortillas in a clean towel to keep warm.

These tortillas can be customized with spices or herbs. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days, or freeze for up to 2 months. Enjoy with salsa, guacamole, or your favorite dips.
