To enjoy them at their best, gently warm them before serving. You can do this on a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side, or briefly in a microwave wrapped in a damp paper towel. Warming makes them more pliable and enhances their flavor, making them ideal for rolling and folding without tearing. They are a quick and easy base for countless meal ideas.
