How people cook with it
These tortillas are a versatile snack that can be enjoyed in many ways.
- Dipped in salsa
- Topped with cheese
- Served with guacamole
- Crumbled over salads
To enjoy these restaurant-style tortillas, simply open the bag and serve them as they are. They are ready to eat straight from the package. For a warm treat, you can briefly heat them in an oven or toaster oven, being careful not to overcook them, which could make them burn. They are perfect for scooping up dips or as a crunchy base for various toppings.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike softer flour tortillas used for wraps, these corn tortillas are fried until crisp. This preparation gives them a brittle texture and a distinct corn flavor that is different from the chewy texture of uncooked tortillas or the softer crunch of baked tortilla chips.

How to keep the rest
To maintain their crispness, store any leftover tortillas in their original packaging, ensuring the bag is sealed tightly. Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture to prevent them from becoming stale or losing their crunch.
