In a large bowl, add bread flour blend, salt, and butter.

Pulse on low until the mixture resembles wet sand texture.

Slowly add warm water (about 90 degrees), not all at once, to adjust for climate.

Once combined, the mixture should look like buttercream and be slightly tacky but not sticky.

Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for about an hour.

After chilling, pull off pieces of dough and roll them into balls.

Roll the dough on a countertop with extra flour or use parchment paper for easier rolling.

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook each tortilla for about 20 to 30 seconds on each side.

Flip tortillas more than once if needed and pop any air bubbles with a spatula.

To make a burrito-sized tortilla, roll out the dough and use a large skillet to cut it out.

Roll the dough onto a rolling pin and unroll it into the skillet to cook.

Demonstrate making a burrito, noting that it's not a burrito-making tutorial, just to show the pliability of the tortillas.

Wrap the burrito in foil like Chipotle would.
