About Tortilla chips, yellow, plain, salted
The tortilla chip is a crisp, sturdy snack made by cutting corn tortillas into triangles and frying or baking them until golden and crunchy, then dusting them with salt. Built from the same nixtamalized corn masa as the tortilla, it carries a toasty corn flavor and comes plain, salted, or seasoned, in white, yellow, and blue corn varieties. Chips provide carbohydrates and energy, and baked versions trim the fat of fried ones; the corn base is naturally gluten-free.
They are the classic partner for dipping into salsa, guacamole, queso, and bean dips, the crunchy foundation of loaded nachos, and a scoop for chili and ceviche. Thicker restaurant-style chips hold up best to hearty toppings and dips. Keep tortilla chips in a sealed bag or container to stay crisp, store them in a cool, dry cupboard, and refresh any that have gone soft with a few minutes in a warm oven before serving.
