Cooking WOD 12.13 Paleo Flax Tortillas

From http://realsustenance.com/flax-tortillas-glutengrainstarcheggcornsoynut-free/

INGREDIENTS:

¼ cup flax meal + 6 tbsp hot water

1 cup flax meal

2 tbsp coconut flour

1 tsp sea salt

Additional spice ideas:  chili flakes, pepper, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, curry, chives, cinnamon, etc

METHOD:

1.       In a small bowl, combine the ¼ cup flax meal and hot water.  Mix to create thick, goopy “flax eggs.”

2.       Add the “flax eggs” to a larger bowl with the additional cup of flax meal and coconut flour.  Also add any spices you want to use.

3.       Mix with a spoon, then use your hands to knead the thick dough.  Eventually it will not be sticky, but should be elastic and hold together nicely.  If you feel your dough is too dry, run your fingers under some water and add moisture to the dough with your hands.

4.       Divide dough into 8 balls.  Roll each ball out between two sheets of parchment paper as thin as you can get.

5.       Preheat skillet to medium high.  Lightly oil.  One it’s hot, place the tortilla in it and cook 30-40 seconds, then flip over for another 30-40 seconds.  Remove and continue with the rest of the pile.  Re-oil the skillet as needed.  The longer you cook these, the crispier they become.  If you want them malleable, don’t overcook them.

6.       Serve warm!  Yum!
