What it is
These are soft, pliable flour tortillas designed for making tacos and other Mexican-inspired dishes. They are pre-made and ready to be heated and filled. The tortillas are typically round and have a mild flavor that complements a variety of fillings. Their texture is soft and slightly chewy, making them easy to fold around your favorite ingredients.

To best enjoy these tortillas, warm them before serving. You can heat them on a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side until they are soft and pliable. Alternatively, you can warm them in the microwave, wrapped in a damp paper towel, for about 15-30 seconds. Once warmed, they are ready to be filled with your chosen ingredients and folded into tacos or other wraps. Avoid overcooking, which can make them brittle.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to corn tortillas, flour tortillas have a softer, chewier texture and a more neutral flavor profile. They are also generally larger and more flexible, making them easier to wrap around substantial fillings without breaking. This makes them ideal for dishes where a substantial wrap is desired.
Who it is for
Home cooks looking for a convenient way to prepare family-friendly Mexican meals will appreciate these tortillas.
How to keep the rest
After opening, store any remaining tortillas in their original packaging or in an airtight container or resealable bag. Keep them at room temperature to maintain their softness. For longer storage, they can be refrigerated, but be sure to bring them back to room temperature before heating to ensure flexibility.
