About this product
Guanajuato Tortillas Mais Tortillas are 12 cm corn tortillas from Mexico. They are made from nixtamalized corn flour: the corn kernels are first cooked in an alkaline solution, such as lime water, then washed and dried. The tortillas are halal, gluten-free and GMO-free and contain no preservatives.
Because of the nixtamalization process, a strong smell may occur, often described as chemical or ammonia-like. This is normal and comes from the reaction of corn with lime water. The smell disappears when you let the tortillas air and briefly heat them in a pan or oven. If you prefer tortillas with a milder smell, try Guanajuato Tortillas White Corn Tortillas 15cm, 10st. These do contain preservatives.
Usage and preparation
Briefly warm the tortillas in a dry pan (without oil) or in the microwave. Use them for tacos, burritos and quesadillas.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry place (5-25 °C). Refrigerate after opening.
