Plain tortillas are a staple of Mexican cuisine, widely enjoyed for their versatility and simplicity. Typically made from flour, water, salt, and fat (such as lard or vegetable oil), they have a soft, pliable texture ideal for wrapping, folding, or layering in dishes like burritos, tacos, and quesadillas. While they are a good source of carbohydrates, plain tortillas can vary in nutritional value depending on ingredients. Flour tortillas are higher in calories and fat compared to corn tortillas, which are generally considered a healthier option due to their lower calorie content and higher fiber. Additionally, some store-bought tortillas may contain preservatives or added sodium to extend shelf life. For those seeking health-conscious choices, whole-grain or low-carb varieties offer increased fiber and less processed ingredients. Plain tortillas provide a neutral canvas for countless flavors, making them a beloved addition to meals across cultures.
