The texture is pliable, making them easy to fold and roll. The subtle aroma of garlic and herbs adds an extra layer of taste to any dish.

To enjoy them at their best, warm them gently on a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side until pliable and slightly puffed. You can also warm them in the microwave, wrapped in a damp paper towel, for about 15-20 seconds.

They can also be cut into wedges and baked or fried to create crispy taco shells or tortilla chips.
