A tortilla is a thin, round flatbread made from either corn or wheat flour, commonly used in Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisine. It has a soft, pliable texture that makes it ideal for wrapping or folding, and a mild, slightly nutty flavor that complements a wide variety of fillings and toppings. Tortillas are versatile and come in various sizes, making them perfect for everything from tacos and burritos to quesadillas and enchiladas. Their golden-brown appearance when toasted adds a delightful visual appeal to dishes, making them a staple in kitchens worldwide.

Store tortillas in their original packaging or an airtight container to maintain freshness. If unopened, they can be kept at room temperature in a cool, dry place for up to a week. Once opened, refrigerate them to extend their shelf life to about 2 weeks. For longer storage, freeze tortillas by placing parchment paper between each one and sealing them in a freezer-safe bag; they can last up to 6 months frozen. Thaw frozen tortillas at room temperature or in the refrigerator before use.
