***** About Living Traditions Homestead *****
Living Traditions Homestead is all about living a simple and sustainable way of life. We believe the world has gotten too “busy” and that people are missing out on many of the true blessings this world has to offer. We started as a small urban homestead in Gilbert, AZ and after the city grew up around us, decided it was time leave corporate America and take a big leap of faith by moving our family to the Missouri Ozarks.
We put out 5 new videos every week! Tuesday through Saturday. We hope you will become part of our homestead family by subscribing to our channel and watching as we transition from city dwellers to full time homesteaders!

Thank you so much. I'm going to get right on it. When I was 18 I made my way to Florida back around 1975. I was down and out homeless. Some Mexicans took me in, and we all worked together picking oranges, and doing what we could to survive. I remember that the mother would make these every day for us to take to work, and we survived on these with pinto beans. God bless her heart. They didn't have to take me in. God bless these Mexicans!!!

[@glenmorse9533]

OK, I made them using Organic Whole Wheat Sprouted Flour, and following your directions, and they turned out really good, Thanks again!!!

[@sandracuellar7722]

Glen I grew up eating bean sandwiches. Made on tortillas.

[@magz0626]

I am so happy to see a homesteading male making food and sharing recipes and a Christian man to boot! My husband and I just came inside from planting artichokes and mulching the blueberries. We homestead just waiting and praying our way through for the animals. They won't let us have them here because of zoning restriction but we're beloved God for changes because this is our dream house which God saved for us..... I could go on and on but I'll leave at: GOD IS GOOD!

[@ThisIsYourOnlyWarning]

Melanie MSG saying a prayer for you and your family. I hope your prayers come true! God bless!

[@CrochetwithClare]

A video I always come back to. Loved seeing the old kitchen 😍

[@CrochetwithClare]

I come back to this video all the time ❤

[@jennidominguez5987]

I do not think your being boastful.. I think you are very proud of the life you and your family are creating and that is a WONDERFUL thing...

[@kellybearden5697]

I bought a tortilla press on eBay last week for around ten dollars. It cuts the rolling time down significantly. Well worth the money. Great video, thank you.

[@jeanninemiller6584]

I love that you do so much baking instead of leaving it all for your wife to do!

[@cathysteele924]

Kevin, you and Sarah have such outstanding content on your channel! This video is a perfect example. You go down in the weeds with Detail that can help the most rank novice feel confident, without coming across as condescending or being boring for folks who have already experienced what you’re teaching. It’s a real gift from the Lord, born of humility, and I pray God will continue to bless your Homestead family. ❤️🪴✝️

[@joannszuhay450]

I came back here to review your recipe. LOL. I love it! Thank you! Feb 2, 2023😀

[@chrisbitonti4106]

Hi! It's me again. The content of your show seems to center around no waste. I love your pigs. My Grandparents had 480 acres in Ithaca New York and grew or raised everything. They also had a vineyard which they made wine and vinegar and jams. But, getting back to the pigs, my whole family ate pickled pigs feet, soup with the tail, and hedge cheese with the nose and head. They loved fried cows brains and tongue. I passed on most of that, mostly because I've always had issues with eating something that I named and played with. As always, Chris

[@CrochetwithClare]

My husband and I love these so much! Have you ever made a batch in advance and stored them in the fridge or even the freezer?

[@CrochetwithClare]

Hello ! If possible can you or Sarah make a video on how to cook with cast iron. What differences to non stick . Utensils to use, plastic or metal. How to care for pans I am wanting to make the switch to cast iron but would love some tips

[@InOppositiontotheNewWorldOrder]

The only thing plastic that belongs in a kitchen, is the thing you put your garbage in.

[@sonyiadouglas1671]

Just need to tell newbies that you need to stack the tortillas in a dish or foil and wrap up so they stay moist, otherwise they get dry and brittle. I usually stack on foil, wrap until cool and then put any leftover into a zip bag to use later or freeze. To use later just slap onto a griddle both sides until hot wrap as you go to soften, either in a tortilla dish or foil and they are great. Even after freezing better than store bought.

[@Pamela-jr3ht]

I love it!! Thank You!

[@kprairiesun]

Look great! Thanks! Love your cooking videos, both of you!

[@barefootwildflowers3209]

I went with my boys to an organic wheat farm for a field trip years before we started our homesteading journey that changed opened my eyes to how wheat was being produced commercially.

[@kimhartley6363]

Definitely going to be trying these.

[@gloriakipfer3144]

Binge watching your channel tonight!!! Amazing content!!! Thank you guys so much for sharing all your knowledge and wow amazing recipes!!! God bless....

[@measureup01]

Pink Himalayas salt is the best! Love the taste of it soooo much!

[@heatherbrewer1586]

WOW! that little tidbit about the way most wheat is dried was a game changer. We have been buying good flour and making our own bread for a few months now anyway and I am so happy we are.

[@sharonstrange9388]

Another masterpiece Chef Kevin! You are a great cook and ur all looks so good. Thank you for sharing. God Bless you and fam

[@bettymaverick1098]

[@brendamurray2145]

[@sickquads4me]

[@jonpalmer2766]

[@janestephens7516]

Thank you.

[@brittneyshaleen]

I lost my old recipe from before we moved, so I'm stealing yours!! :) Thanks! Love ya!

[@fallenangelwi25]

OMG yummy 😋❤️!!!!!

[@sandracuellar7722]

Love your videos. Grew up eating homemade tortillas both flour and corn made by my grandmother and aunt.

[@pragawa]

Great video. Thanks. I make these very often, use whole wheat flour, it's healthier. I cook them on an iron griddle.

[@elizabethpatrick5097]

I've made the tortios, it was esy, no more store bought ones. Thanks alot for all your great recipies, and the info about the wheat, now we buy only organic wheat products. More money saved.

[@CollegemomLynn]

I absolutely 💚💚 these kitchen videos, making great food from scratch! Would love to see you and Sarah include recipes or tips on how to make some of these from alternative ingredients from the wild.....like if flour wasn't available. In other words, could we ground up a kudzu root or other roots to make a flour of sorts? Lol. We can make our own yeast, but how much do you use for various recipes? You could can butter (ghee) in jars. How can we make oil the easiest most healthy way? I ❤ Sarah's foraging videos!!! Definitely 2 of my favs!! You guys are great and I'm so happy to be learning & inspired by you both!! 😃

[@mommom6423]

Yum

[@lottawatahland4188]

Wow terrible. Didn't know that about the spraying

[@noreen4529]

They spray to kill the weeds not the grain, the grain as already ripened and therefor wouldn’t absorb the spray. Just what I know from actual grain farmers who harvest real wheat.

[@MidnightPearl1974]

I make these on a regular basis, home made food is delish

[@tomwells9665]

Thanks for sharing Kevin. I am going to use your bean recipe in the Dutch oven this weekend. That is if doesn't rain.

[@fallenangelwi25]

Thank you 😊 thank you, thank you!!!!!!

[@stevenjbeto]

Your recipies, craftmanship, and insights into a self-sustaining lifestyle exceed in importance to all the fancy international chefs or master craftsmen. It is often so valuable to hear about your mistakes and how you corrected them. You might not get a Michelin Star, but you have 5 of mine.

[@adh1980s]

Bro u are truly the man!!! U make it seem so easy!!! I’m definitely trying this one too!!

[@sin46ned]

Wanted to add, I cook my tortillas right on the burner. You only leave it on the burner a short time and I flip it over and over till they are as brown as I want them. They will only have a few scattered brown marks. I learned this method from some Mexican friends that I met in California.

[@candiwallace6605]

Cheers 😍😍

[@dhanks55]

You guys have a LOVELY kitchen with lots of light and room! Great sink. Sorry but I love nice kitchens. TORTILLAS fantastic too ❤️❤️

[@ranal7935]

.. everything tastes better when it comes fresh from your own garden....

[@yeshuaisthewaythetruthandt515]

Thanku

[@sandyoklahomatransient8557]

Since they're easy, I'm trying them.

[@Celestes_Nest]

Homemade tortillas are the best!!!

[@tomcollier4089]

ditto on the cool shirt too!

[@remcdonald20]

You need a to do a cook book and book with the soap and home made med. and oils combined . I just love you .

[@breemabe6724]

thank you so much for this! I ending up having to make around 33 in all, my kids my hubby and myself ended up loving them! The kids ended up eating the most! ( there were 12 at the end. lol)

[@renajones4617]

I have always wanted to make homemade tortillas. This is great. Thank you! Also, would you please do a video about you oak kneading board? I would love to learn about and make one.

[@nancyfahey7518]

Love the shirt.😊

[@emilyswan9446]

Oh my gosh Kevin, I love your shirt!

[@itsjustmetomc4848]

Nice video! I wish we could have met ya when you live here in Arizona because we're here in Mesa, Arizona! Well, many blessing from our family to yours!

[@lesper09]

I grew up making tortillas. My grandma, aunties, and momma all still make tortillas. I am glad I was able to pass down this tradition to my children. We make them every week now since its just my daughter and I. Its basically a staple in our home. My boys are all military and when I have boots in the house I always make sure they get fresh tortillas, a pot of beans, and red chile!! I use Manteca.....animal lard. I am curious to see the taste difference with butter. I love butter pretty much on everything! Try it on your beans when you serve them!

[@theclarkfamilyhomestead2395]

Hi guys 1st of all on your deer steak dinner video when u flour and fry, add like a tsp of cinnamon. I would not eat deer till my husband did this, you will love it. Second love love love Sarah's wierdnesses, like when she looks for something in the kitchen and completes a circle walking around her kitchen lol, man I do that all the time, it makes things feel real and that's nice. 3rd thankyou for doing this! I'm beginning a homestead in Helena,MT , we have a little harsher weather but no rain hardly except in June. We have an sunkin garden 6ft down, with a green house top. It's really windy here. and this is my first year planting a garden. I'm learning so much! Again, thank you for sharing. Let me know how u like the cinnamon in the flour on the deer steak! Makes winter even better cozy with that warm spice! God bless!

[@dorinecapaletti288]

I use tortillas as my bread, so, I'll be making my own from now on!

[@shellicameron408]

Great Video

[@stevedingman474]

I learned to make these in the 70s from a Hispanic boys mom she came into class with a electric skillet and made the tortillas and sprinkled cinnamon and sugar and passed them out to us that recipe stuck in my mind she used lard but said crisco if we didn’t have lard ... I went home and made those for dessert for our family and they were a hit and mom never bought tortillas again !

[@sallymarrujo6898]

This type of using a flour tortilla is called "Bunuelos" made for the Christmas Holiday and/ or New Year, along with Champurrado or Mexican Chocolate to drink. Not for savory foods. By the way: Tacos are only made with corn masa. Burritos are only made with flour tortillas . I am a third generation American-Mexican; and grew up on homemade flour and corn tortillas. Nothing can beat homemade ( any type of food). Hope this information was helpful.

[@normamccomas9272]

excellent video

[@tracynail4432]

I know what you're saying about getting spoiled on Mexican food- we moved from Phoenix to the middle of nowhere Kentucky 3 years ago. It's been rough. I miss food city, I miss QT, and I miss all the different Mexican dishes available

[@littlecreekhomestead4086]

I love how simple stupid easy this recipe is!!! Thanks for sharing! ~Vicki~

[@nancyfahey7518]

Little Creek Homestead. Ya, but I bet I can still screw it up.

[@littlecreekhomestead4086]

I know that feeling....lol!!

[@paidicampbell1972]

Thanks for that, I'm going to enjoy making these - they look perfect for lunchtime pizza :)

[@ThisisHowieDewitt777]

Thank you, I liked and subscribed

[@tomcollier4089]

Thanks, man! I will give it a try. Honestly, I never even though about making my own. Duh!

[@lilbitatatime3763]

I'm going to give these a try with gluten free flour. Thank you for sharing the recipe.👍

[@LisaHall-uc8sq]

Looks yummy thanks for the recipe we will be given this one a try! But most of all thank you for the information I had no idea about the wheat being treated with Roundup!!! My family will be switching to Organic flour!!!

[@LivingTraditionsHomestead]

I was amazed when I first learned about how they do this as well. Everyday is something new to have to avoid/switch.

[@salonisalvi3484]

Hi Kevin , in India we call it chapati !! And yes it is the staple diet in many parts of the country , rice being in the rest of the country. Never thought tacos could be made like this . Surely will try !!
