How to Warm the Tortillas
For a more flexible texture and to bring out the flavour of the corn, warm the tortillas before filling them.
In a frying pan or on a comal: Heat a dry frying pan over medium heat and warm each tortilla briefly on both sides until heated through and pliable.
In the microwave: Place the tortillas in a microwave-safe container, cover with a slightly damp cloth and heat briefly. Avoid overheating them, as this can cause them to dry out.
Once warmed, keep the tortillas wrapped in a clean cloth or in a tortilla warmer until ready to serve.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between corn tortillas and wheat tortillas?
Corn tortillas have a distinctive corn flavour and are traditionally used in many Mexican tacos. Wheat tortillas tend to be more elastic and flexible, making them a popular choice for burritos and wraps. The best option depends on the recipe and the texture you prefer.
How should I warm tortillas to keep them flexible?
Warm them briefly in a dry frying pan or on a comal, turning them to heat both sides. If using a microwave, cover them with a slightly damp cloth to help prevent them from drying out.
What is the difference between 12 cm Taquera tortillas and larger tortillas?
Taquera tortillas are designed for Mexican taquería-style tacos. Larger tortillas provide more room for generous fillings and can be used in other dishes, such as enchiladas.
Can I prepare the fillings in advance?
Yes. You can prepare the fillings ahead of time and store them according to their respective storage instructions. For the best texture, warm the tortillas shortly before serving.
