HAHAHAHA i was wondering why you wanted to know about how to make taco shells. i'm like it's so easy.

ok to make flour tortillas:

you mix flour, baking powder salt and warm water adn some use lard in theirs but i dont, i'm not THAT downhome mexican. roll the dough into a ball, then flatten it (like you're making pizza) then put on a griddle and then go from there.

i haven't made corn in like forever cause it's a little more time consuming but its the same ingredients of flour but you use more cornmeal and less flour.

you can also add butter, i forgot about that. regarding measurments, it all depends on how much you wnat to make. i just know so for me it's a part of this a part of that etc.

they're SO easy and only take a minute or so. not a long time but mixing the ingredients till it gets all doughy is not fun.
