Frequently Asked Questions
What are these Yellow Corn Tortillas made from?
They are made with 100% nixtamalised yellow corn, using the traditional nixtamalisation process that gives authentic corn tortillas their distinctive flavour, aroma and texture.
Why should I warm the tortillas before using them?
Heating the tortillas for a few seconds in a frying pan, on a comal or in the microwave restores their natural flexibility, making them easier to fold or roll without cracking.
Can I freeze these tortillas?
Yes. You can freeze them in their original packaging or in an airtight container for several months. Simply thaw them gradually and warm them before serving.
What's the difference between yellow and white corn tortillas?
Both are produced using the traditional nixtamalisation process. The main difference is the variety of corn used, which gives each tortilla a slightly different colour, flavour and aroma while maintaining the authenticity of traditional Mexican cuisine.
What does nixtamalised corn mean?
Nixtamalisation is an ancient process that has been used in Mexico for thousands of years. Corn is cooked in an alkaline solution before being ground into dough, improving its flavour, texture and nutritional value. This traditional method is essential for producing authentic corn tortillas.
