To enjoy these tortillas, you can warm them gently on a dry skillet or griddle over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side until pliable and slightly toasted. Alternatively, you can wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 15-20 seconds. They are best served immediately after warming to maintain their soft texture and enhance their flavor. They can be used as a wrapper or as a component in various layered dishes.
