Homemade flour tortillas are a versatile staple in Mexican cuisine, cherished for their soft, chewy texture and mild, buttery flavor. Made from simple ingredients such as all-purpose flour, water, salt, and a fat source like vegetable oil or lard, these tortillas are crafted by mixing, rolling, and cooking the dough on a hot griddle. While they offer a comforting, homemade alternative to store-bought options, their nutritional profile depends heavily on the fat used in preparation. Flour tortillas are often lower in fiber than their whole wheat or corn counterparts and can be higher in calories due to the refined flour and added fat. However, they provide energy-rich carbohydrates and can be customized with healthier substitutes like whole wheat flour or olive oil. Perfect for wraps, quesadillas, or traditional Mexican dishes, homemade flour tortillas deliver warmth and authenticity to any meal.
