How people cook with it
These tortillas are perfect for creating authentic Mexican dishes or adding a unique twist to your favorite meals.
- Wrap fillings for tacos
- Layer for enchiladas

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 pliable and slightly toasted. Alternatively, you can warm them in the microwave, wrapped in a damp paper towel, for about 30 seconds. Some people also prefer to lightly char them directly over a gas flame for a smoky flavor. Ensure they are heated through before using them in your recipes.
