Fresh Corn Tortillas

Our corn tortillas are made with nixtamalized corn flour, or masa harina. This is the main ingredient to make and to name just a few:

-Tacos: See this link for our Tacollection with our favourite taco recipes Tacollection

-Tortilla chips: See this recipe for a good example. 

There are different ways to prepare our corn tortillas for different uses, such as:

-Soft Tacos: the corn tortilla must be heated before use. This is easily achieved by placing it directly on a hot, non-oiled pan and allowing the tortilla to heat up for a few seconds on each side, turning often until soft and steaming.

-Fried (for tacos, chilaquiles or tortilla chips) air fryer: the corn tortilla needs to be brushed with vegetable oil and cut into the desired shape (triangles for chilaquiles) or as it is (to make tostadas) and placed in the air fryer at around 180C for 8 to 12 minutes (depending on the device). The tortillas must be turned or shaken halfway and continue until golden brown and toasted to the desired degree. Whilst still hot, we recommend sprinkling with Maldon salt or any seasoning for extra flavour.

Suggestions: Corn tortillas are best fresh! Our corn tortillas are freshly made which means they have no additional ingredients to make them last longer than they should. However, any non-fresh tortillas (older than 3 days for example, confirm with Oscar or Luis) are perfect to be fried or toasted and give them a new lease of life! 

Note: Fresh corn tortillas should be stored in an air-tight plastic bag and inside the fridge. Any leftover warm tortilla should be completely cooled before being stored back in the fridge.
