Unflavored coconut oil, also known as refined, has no coconut aroma or taste. Where it is certainly easier to use, you don’t need the kind of traditional tortilla press that you see when tortillas are made, just a simple rolling pin can achieve the same result. These No Lard Flour Tortillas were the perfect vehicle for the One Pan Oven Fajitas I made last week. Also perfect for Sonoran Shredded Beef Tacos and Slow Cooker Barbacoa Tacos. Before I serve the tortillas, I like to char them which also warms them. This can be done by putting them directly over your gas stove flame one at a time. If you don’t have a gas stove, you can broil them or use a kitchen blow torch. The char adds a lovely smoky flavor to the tortilla. Flour tortillas are derived from corn tortillas that are popular for tacos, taquitos and enchiladas. Corn tortillas are made in the same way as flour, but only with corn flour and water making them gluten free and healthy.
