Every thing about THE FLOUR TORTILLAS | Vahrehvah :

The flour tortillas are made with whole wheat flour, corn flour, baking powder and pinch of salt and oil. These tortillas are healthy, nutritious, fat free, carb balanced and high protein. Tortilla means little torta or little cake in Spanish. The Spanish word is used in English for a more restricted range of foods, mainly a potato-based omelette originating in Spain, and for a flatbread made from corn or wheat originally made by Mesoamerican peoples. Flatbread tortillas are a staple food in Mexico and have been eaten for many centuries now. More recently, other countries have begun producing them to serve the expatriate Mexican market and the growing demand for Mexican food, particularly in North America, Europe and Eastern Asia. Mexican tortillas are commonly prepared with meat to make dishes such as tacos, burritos, and enchiladas. The word tortilla in Spanish denotes two different classes of foods, one basically an omelette which may have added ingredients and the other a flat thin cake of maize or flour. In English, the Spanish word is used sometimes specifically for the Spanish tortilla de patatas (but not for omelettes in general), and very widely for the very different Mexican tortilla, the corn tortilla (tortilla de maíz). The traditional Mexican tortilla is made from specially treated maize flour which has been a staple food of the Mexican region since pre-Columbian times. Now there are also wheat Mexican tortillas having different texture and is less easily broken due to its high gluten content and can be made larger in circumference and thinner without breaking too easily. The wheat flour tortilla is probably best known as the tortilla used in making burritos, a dish originating in northern Mexico. Wheat tortillas have also become a staple of the peoples of northwestern Mexican states (such as Sonora and Chihuahua) and many southwestern US Native American tribes whereas Mexican corn tortillas are commonly eaten throughout the western world as tortilla chips, and are an essential ingredient in many popular Mexican dishes, such as enchiladas, tostadas, and flautas. Tacos, while usually made with corn tortillas in Mexico, are made with either corn or wheat tortillas in other places that make Mexican-style or Tex-Mex food.

When serving a number of tortillas at once, place them in a tortilla warmer basket and cover until ready to serve. This keeps them warm and soft.
