About Wheat flour tortilla
Wheat flour tortillas are thin, round flatbreads made from a simple mixture of flour, water, salt, and often fat, such as vegetable oil or lard. Originating from Mexican cuisine, they are a versatile staple used for tacos, burritos, wraps, and quesadillas. Compared to corn tortillas, wheat flour tortillas are softer and more flexible, making them ideal for various fillings. They provide a source of carbohydrates and contain small amounts of protein and fiber, depending on the recipe. Whole wheat versions offer higher fiber and nutrient content, making them a healthier choice. However, some pre-packaged varieties may contain added preservatives, sodium, or unhealthy fats, which can detract from their nutritional value. Moderation is key, especially for individuals watching calorie intake, as traditional wheat tortillas can be calorie-dense. Choose freshly made or whole wheat options for a balance of taste and nourishment.
