What it is
These are soft, pliable flatbreads made from wheat flour. They are designed to be lower in carbohydrates compared to traditional flour tortillas. The dough is typically mixed, rolled thin, and then cooked on a griddle or comal until lightly browned and softened. They offer a convenient base for various meals and snacks.

To best enjoy their texture, gently warm the tortillas before filling. This can be done by heating them one at a time in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 15-30 seconds per side, until they become pliable and slightly puffed. Alternatively, they can be wrapped in a damp paper towel and microwaved for 20-30 seconds. Once warm, they are ready to be filled with your favorite ingredients and rolled or folded into your desired meal.
