Ingredients:  
2 cups bread flour
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 cup vegetable shortening
3/4 cup warm water (105° to 115°F)
Directions:
Directions:
Put a baking stone or inverted (upside down!) baking sheet in the oven and pre-heat to 450 F.º

Combine all the ingredients in a bowl or with an electric mixer until they come together and form a dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured counter and knead until smooth and elastic, about 4-6 minutes.

Pinch off into 8 pieces, and roll each into a ball. Allow to rest for 20 minutes covered with a clean tea towel.

Roll balls out into circles about 6-8 inches in diameter, about 1/8 inch thick. Like Andrea said, don't worry if you can't get it perfect! Place on the hot stone or cookie sheet and bake, watching carefully. Andrea baked hers for 3 minutes per side, I might just bake mine for two. It's hard to tell. Don't leave the stove! Just stand and watch them carefully. I flipped mine over and baked both sides until they were a nice golden brown.
