How people cook with it
Tortillas are incredibly versatile and can be used for a wide range of meals and snacks.

To best enjoy their soft texture, you can gently warm them before use. This can be done in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side, or briefly in a microwave. Warming makes them more pliable and enhances their flavor, preventing them from cracking when folded or rolled. They are perfect for assembling burritos, tacos, or fajitas, holding your favorite fillings securely.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to corn tortillas, flour tortillas are generally softer and more flexible. They have a milder flavor profile that complements a wider variety of fillings without overpowering them. Their larger size in many varieties also makes them suitable for bigger wraps.
