(60 tortillas per packet) Known as tlaxcalli in ancient times, it has been a staple food in ancient Mexico since 3,500 years ago. Tortillas are still a must in almost every Mexican family meal, dipped in sauces or to make tacos. The nixtamalization process that tortillas go through significantly enriches the nutritional value of maize as a source of vitamins, minerals (calcium) and protein. 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).
