About Casave tortilla

Casave Tortilla, a traditional flatbread from Indigenous Caribbean cuisine, is crafted primarily from cassava—a nutrient-rich root vegetable native to the Americas. This tortilla’s simple recipe typically includes grated cassava, water, and a pinch of salt, creating a gluten-free bread alternative. Casave Tortillas are naturally high in carbohydrates, making them a source of quick energy, but they are low in fats and protein. Cassava provides essential dietary fiber, supporting digestion, and contains micronutrients like potassium and vitamin C. However, moderation is advised due to cassava’s naturally high calorie content. Traditionally prepared without oils or additional fats, Casave Tortillas are a wholesome option for those seeking simple, plant-based foods. Celebrated for their light, crisp texture, these tortillas offer a unique way to enjoy ancient culinary traditions, complementing a variety of dishes while honoring their Caribbean roots through their minimally processed preparation.
