Spelt tortillas
I was sorting through my recipes tonight and found this one for spelt
tortillas. I haven’t made them, but they do sound easy. Would love to hear
how they are if someone makes them.

Tortillas for O - flat bread for making wraps, quesadillas, etc..
Submitted by Alegre Ramos (ramos@…).
Ingredients For two wrap size flat breads
1 cup spelt flour
1/4 cup water
1/4 tsp salt
dab of olive oil.
Directions Okay…so I missed wrapping things…it is such an easy way to
eat because I’m just not a sandwich person even though it
has been easy enough to find other forms of breads O types are allowed I
could never find a non-wheat or non-corn flat
bread. This one is made with spelt and is VERY EASY.
Mix the salt and the flour together and then add water…
when it gets to the point that all the water has been absorbed
knead the dough…divide the dough into two pieces and then put just a few
drops of olive oil in your palm and slather between your hands and then take
the two pieces of dough and knead one in each hand just so that the dustiness
of the dough is gone and it sure be smoother.
The oil prevents the bread from being too dry. Roll the balls out with a
rolling pin (the heavier the better) until they are about 1/8 of an inch
thick and then put them on a skill on a med high flame and flip a couple of
times until they have some firmness and then put them directly on the fire
and flip as they start to “poof” up. Voila.
I like to get the vegetarian refried beans and put those in there along with
some tempeh that I’ve spiced with cajun spices and then pan-grilled, and some
romain lettuce…really good and quick.
I can make, eat and clean the whole thing in under 45 minutes.
