Soft tortillas are a versatile flatbread originating from Mexican cuisine, traditionally made from finely-ground corn (maize) or wheat flour. The ingredients typically include flour, water, salt, and sometimes a bit of oil or fat for pliability. While corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free, wheat tortillas contain gluten. Soft tortillas are a staple for dishes like tacos, burritos, and wraps, offering a mild flavor that complements various fillings and toppings. Nutritionally, they are a good source of carbohydrates and often low in fat, making them a quick energy source. Whole wheat or multigrain varieties provide added fiber, which supports digestion and heart health. However, some store-bought tortillas may contain preservatives, added sodium, or saturated fats, depending on the recipe. Choosing minimally processed tortillas is a healthier option, and homemade versions allow better control over the ingredients.
