Rice tortillas are a gluten-free alternative to traditional wheat or corn tortillas, made primarily from rice flour and water, with occasional additions like tapioca starch to enhance texture. Originating from the push for diverse allergen-free options, they are widely used in cuisines that cater to gluten-sensitive diets or modern fusion styles. These tortillas are soft, pliable, and slightly chewy, making them ideal for wraps, tacos, or flatbreads. Rich in carbs but typically low in fat, rice tortillas provide quick energy, though they may lack dietary fiber and some nutrients present in whole grains. They’re naturally free of gluten, making them suitable for individuals with celiac disease or gluten intolerance. However, some store-bought varieties may contain preservatives or additives, so reading ingredient labels is key. Pairing rice tortillas with nutrient-dense fillings like vegetables and lean proteins can create a well-rounded, balanced meal.
