Plan B

I was so excited to make burritos today, once I was done preparing the filling I went to the cabinet to grab the tortilla wraps and... they didn't look good. I didn't check to see if they were expired but they had something nasty growing on them, so I threw them away. I thought of making wraps from scratch hoping they wouldn't take too much time, and apparently they're very easy to make. Except I didn't have the right flour. In order to stretch the tortillas very thin without breaking them, it's best to have a flour that is high in gluten, otherwise known as "strong flour". That's the flour you'd use to make bread or pizza, while I had a weak all-purpose. So what I ended up making was flatbread. I even took baking classes years ago, so I should have known that, but I was too concerned with making up for the lack of tortilla wraps I forgot. Not that I would have used another flour, we don't have any at home and I didn't feel like going to the store for a bunch of flour. Not a big deal. I had a nice meal even if it wasn't exactly what I planned.
