About Telera

Telera is a soft, white sandwich roll originating from Mexican cuisine, commonly used for tortas—traditional Mexican sandwiches. Its distinct oval shape and smooth crust make it versatile for various fillings. Made from basic ingredients like wheat flour, water, yeast, salt, and often a touch of sugar or oil, Telera provides a carbohydrate base that can offer quick energy. While not typically high in fiber, it is low in fats, especially if prepared without added lard or butter. However, its nutritional profile varies based on preparation. When paired with nutrient-rich ingredients like lean proteins, vegetables, and healthy fats, Telera becomes part of a balanced meal. As a source of refined carbohydrates, moderation is key, especially for individuals monitoring blood sugar levels. Ideal for creating hearty and flavorful sandwiches, Telera reflects the richness of Mexican culinary tradition.
