Whisk the flour, salt, and baking powder together in a mixing
bowl. Mix in the lard with your fingers until the flour resembles
cornmeal. Add the water and mix until the dough comes
together; place on a lightly floured surface and kneed a few
minutes until smooth and elastic. Divide the dough into 24
equal pieces and roll each piece into a ball.

Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Use a well-
floured rolling pin to roll a dough ball into a thin, round tortilla.
Place into the hot skillet, and cook until bubbly and golden; flip
andcontinue cooking until golden on the other side. Place the
cooked tortilla in a tortilla warmer; continue cooking the
remaining dough.
