What it is

The dough is usually leavened, giving them a slightly puffy texture when cooked. They are a staple in many kitchens for quick and versatile meal preparation. Their neutral flavor makes them suitable for a wide range of dishes.

To warm them, you can briefly heat them in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side until pliable. Alternatively, they can be microwaved for a few seconds, wrapped in a damp paper towel. This process makes them easier to fold and prevents them from cracking when you add your desired fillings. Once warmed, they are ready to be filled and rolled or folded.
