Flour Tortilla

Cooking with flour tortillas can be quite remarkable owing to their versatility, however we often only take advantage of them in their inherent state – as a wrap or base for meals like burritos or quesadillas. Here are some integral points about cooking with tortillas: • Many individuals have a tendency to overload them with ingredients causing the tortillas to break or be too stuffed to wrap. It's critical to remember to ration the filling adequately to avoid this. • The art of a good wrap is in how it’s sealed. A common mistake is to not heat it up for a few seconds on either side to give it a light toasting. This not only enhances flavour but creates that essential seal to prevent your meal from plumbing out the other end. • To achieve a crunchy texture on your tortillas and repurpose them a bit, you can cut them into triangles and lightly fry them for homemade tortilla chips, they are an amazing snacking option. • There is often an inclination towards the abnormally large or extra small tortillas, but sticking to a medium sized one provides the most flexibility, both literally and culinarily. Some little-known tips include; • If your tortillas are becoming cool and hard, you can easily warm them up by dampening a paper towel and microwaving them for a few seconds, they will return to their pliable selves. • Use tortillas as a pizza base for a quick and easy pizza hack. Simply spread sauce, cheese, and your favourite toppings, and bake for a few minutes till cheese melts.
