To prepare these flour tortillas, you can warm them gently before serving. Many people prefer to heat them in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side until they are soft and pliable. Alternatively, you can wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave them for a short time. This makes them easier to roll and fill without cracking. Once warmed, they are ready to be filled with your favorite ingredients and folded or rolled.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to corn tortillas, flour tortillas are generally softer and more flexible, making them easier to wrap without tearing. They also have a slightly chewier texture and a milder flavor profile that complements a wide range of fillings without overpowering them.
