To warm the tortillas, you can briefly heat them in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side until they are soft and pliable. Alternatively, you can microwave them for a few seconds, wrapped in a damp paper towel, for an even softer texture. Once warmed, they are ready to be filled with your favorite ingredients for tacos, fajitas, or wraps. They can also be used cold directly from the package for quick snacks or light meals.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to corn tortillas, flour tortillas have a softer, chewier texture and a milder flavor. They are generally more flexible and less prone to tearing when folded or rolled, making them ideal for heartier fillings.

How to keep the rest
After opening, reseal the package tightly to prevent the tortillas from drying out. Store them at room temperature in a cool, dry place. For longer storage, you can refrigerate them, though this may slightly alter their texture.
