Tortillas Caseras, or homemade tortillas, are a staple in Mexican cuisine, offering a fresh and authentic alternative to store-bought varieties. Made primarily from masa harina (corn flour) or all-purpose flour, water, and a pinch of salt, they are simple yet flavorful. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free and rich in fiber, making them a heart-healthy option, while flour tortillas may contain additional fat such as lard or oil, resulting in a softer texture but higher calorie content. Their versatility makes them ideal for tacos, quesadillas, wraps, or as a side to complement meals. Freshly prepared Tortillas Caseras often lack preservatives, providing a cleaner choice for those seeking minimally processed foods. While they can be part of a healthy diet, portion control is key, especially with flour tortillas, which may be higher in refined carbs and fats. For an authentic and wholesome experience, homemade tortillas are a delicious choice.
