Be sure to squeeze out all the excess air before sealing. • If you'd like to freeze your tortillas, wrap individual servings in plastic wrap before placing them in a freezer bag. This prevents them from sticking together, and it's much easier to take out just what you need. • To defrost, remove the number of tortillas you need from the freezer and let them thaw at room temperature or in the fridge overnight. For a quicker defrost, you can also place them in the microwave and use the defrost option.
