About Tortillas, ready-to-bake or -fry, flour, shelf stable
The tortilla is a thin, round, unleavened flatbread that is the edible foundation of Mexican and Central American cooking, made in two great traditions. Corn tortillas are pressed from masa, a dough of dried corn cooked and soaked in an alkaline solution called nixtamalization, which lends earthy flavor and unlocks nutrients, while flour tortillas are rolled from wheat and turn soft and pliable. Both are good sources of carbohydrates and energy; corn tortillas add fiber, calcium, and niacin and are naturally gluten-free, while flour tortillas are richer and more tender.
They are the wrap and vessel for tacos, burritos, quesadillas, enchiladas, and fajitas, toasted into chips, or simply warmed and eaten alongside a meal. Warming them briefly on a dry skillet makes them soft and fragrant. Keep tortillas sealed to prevent drying, refrigerate to extend their life, and freeze extras, reheating on a hot pan or griddle just before serving.
