15cm Blue Corn Tortilla Mexicana 10 x 1kg Case
Tortillas, originally known as tlaxcalli, have been a staple food for more than a millenia, dating back as far as 10,000 years BCE. Tacos are very popular for lunch or dinner. Blue corn is one of the corn varieties that exist in Mexico and has been a staple for more than a millenia. They are perfect for making tacos, quesadillas, flautas and even tostadas (just fry them to crisp) or bake them for 20 minutes at 180 C. Tortillas can be used to prepare assorted types of tacos, such as regular tacos, golden tacos (fried until crispy), flautas (flutes rolled taquitos, looking like thin flutes). When cut into triangles and fried they become totopos (tortilla chips) to prepare chilaquiles with sauce or just to be dipped in cheese or guacamole. When cut in strips, they are used to make tortilla soup; a delicious hot soup with a zingy flavour to chipotle. These tortillas have been have blended with cactus. If you are looking for a delicious yet healthy snack, this will be a great option.
