Yum, they look great! This makes me want to try my hand.
You should probably use dough. Your hand would get severely burnt. /s
But why butter at all?
Because butter tastes amazing, not everyone likes using lard, or pork products in general.
My excuse is lard and vegetable shortening is hard to get here. My reason is butter is great.
I think it's pretty common to make flour tortillas with some incorporated fat, unlike corn tortillas.
TIL that tortillas are made with fat. Always thought its just flour, water and salt (and maybe yeast or something)
A vegetarian option?
They can be made with oil, but my oil ones never really set up properly.
Right. If something needs saturated fats I don't automatically switch to oil because of those kinds of reasons
Maybe try vegetable shortening for a veggiesaurus version? Might set up better than oil.
Isn't Bordier butter all about texture and generally good for earing on its own like on breads etc.? It may be a waste to cook with Bordier butter, just use a good quality butter and that's all. Please correct me if I am wrong.
I don’t know what Bordier butter is, but my wife and I get really fancy Irish or Amish butter, and I have recently had to start insisting that we keep some regular non-premium butter around for just this reason. It feels wasteful to grease a pan with super-fancy premium butter, or to use it in certain recipes.
They sell cook's butter (called «Brut de Baratte») which is about half the price and really nice to work with.
I see.
