Supervalu Whole Wheat Flour Tortillas
What it is
These are soft, round flatbreads made from whole wheat flour. They offer a slightly heartier texture and a more earthy flavor compared to tortillas made with refined white flour. Each tortilla is individually wrapped for freshness, making them convenient for quick meals and snacks. They are a versatile base for a variety of dishes.
How people cook with it
Whole wheat flour tortillas are a popular choice for quick and easy meal preparation. They can be used as a wrapper or a base for many different kinds of food.
- Wrap for burritos
- Base for quesadillas
- Scoop for dips
- Cut into chips
To soften them for rolling or folding, gently warm them before use. This can be done by heating them briefly in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 15-30 seconds per side, or by wrapping them in a damp paper towel and microwaving for 15-20 seconds. Warm tortillas are more pliable and less likely to crack when filled and rolled. They are ideal for creating wraps, enchiladas, or as a base for mini pizzas.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to white flour tortillas, whole wheat versions have a denser texture and a nuttier taste due to the inclusion of the entire wheat kernel. This also contributes to their slightly darker color and more robust flavor profile, making them a good alternative for those seeking a different taste experience.

How to keep the rest
After opening the package, store any unused tortillas in an airtight container or resealable bag at room temperature to maintain their softness and prevent them from drying out. For longer storage, they can be frozen.
