About Tortillamaiz

Tortillamaiz, commonly known as a corn tortilla, is a staple in Mexican cuisine and widely enjoyed across Latin America. Made from ground corn, water, and lime, this simple yet versatile flatbread has been a dietary cornerstone for centuries. Rich in fiber and naturally gluten-free, Tortillamaiz offers a wholesome alternative to many wheat-based products. It contains essential nutrients like magnesium and niacin, contributing to healthy metabolism and energy production. Low in fat and cholesterol, it can support heart health when included in a balanced diet. However, its nutritional profile can vary based on how it's prepared or served; deep-frying or pairing with fatty toppings may increase calorie and fat content. Tortillamaiz's mild flavor and texture make it ideal for tacos, enchiladas, and countless other dishes, promoting a balanced way to enjoy authentic flavors rooted in tradition.
