Recipe type: Bread
Cuisine: Middle Eastern/Mexican
Serves: 12
Ingredients
  • ¾ c. sourdough starter, straight from the fridge
  • 3 cups whole wheat flour*
  • ¾ c. water
  • 2 T olive oil
  • pinch salt
Instructions
  1. Combine all ingredients in a bread machine or in a bowl.
  2. If you're doing the recipe by hand, combine until dough comes together and then knead until smooth.
  3. Place in a lightly oiled bowl, and cover. Let rest for 24 hours before shaping.
  4. If using a bread machine, turn to dough setting, and allow to knead. Turn off machine, and allow to rest for 24 hours.
  5. To shape: divide dough in half, then divide each half into half again.
  6. Pinch each of the pieces into equal thirds, which should give you 12 equal pieces.
  7. Roll each piece into a ball, and cover resting pieces with a damp paper towel while you work with and roll/bake the tortillas.
  8. Lay out a piece of parchment paper to roll out the tortillas.
  9. Heat a cast iron pan or griddle to medium high heat.
  10. Take one ball of dough at a time, and roll it as thin as you can get it.
  11. Gently peel up from parchment and place on the griddle for about 30 seconds to 2 minutes, until slightly browned.
  12. Flip and cook other side.
  13. Continue to roll other tortillas while you cook.
  14. Allow to cool, and store in an airtight bag in the fridge.
Notes
*If you like a tortilla with a firmer, heartier texture (like Naan), then use hard white wheat. If you prefer a softer, more tender tortilla, then use a soft white/winter wheat or whole wheat pastry flour
After removing the sourdough starter for the recipe, re-feed your starter with an equal amount of flour and water (about a cup of each) and replace mix to the fridge.

I figure these to have about 22 net carbs and about 3 grams of fat, plus 5 grams of protein per tortilla-for 1/12th of this recipe. The carbs are not adjusted for sourdough process, because I have no idea how to do that. :)

These would be a Trim Healthy Mama E food.
