Mix the flour and salt by hand; crumble in the room-temperature butter.
Flour, salt and butter
- 1¼ cup water
Heat two cups of water in the microwave for one minute; pour about one and a quarter cups in slowly, mixing, until the dough is sticky.
Adding warm water slowly
Knead about 5 minutes until soft; it stops sticking after a minute. Do not add more flour.
- butter
Divide into 90 g balls on a scale, rub each with a little butter so it does not dry out.
- flour
On a lightly floured counter press a ball down and roll up and down with a rolling pin, flipping and rotating, until thin enough to see through; too much flour dries it and makes tostadas.
Cook flat on the hot comal until it blisters, flip and give it about 30 seconds, until it fully puffs.
Cooking on the comal
- butter
Store leftovers wrapped in a kitchen towel in a Ziploc bag; serve hot spread with butter.
