Authentic Mexican Products
OUR PRODUCTS
We are passionate about creating quality tortillas the ancient nixtamal way, a process that creates a healthier and tastier tortilla. Nixtamalization uses the whole corn kernel, creating a stronger tortilla that celebrates the natural flavour of the corn.
The La Tortilleria range of authentic Mexican products are gluten free, preservative free, non GMO, wholegrain & contain zero trans fats. We source local produce & celebrate Mexican cuisine & tradition in everything we make.
FAQs
Yes, our tortillas maintain their quality very well after freezing. Freeze them for up to one month making sure they are stored airtight, and use them immediately after defrosting.
Store your tortillas in a cool dark place; a cupboard or refrigerator works perfectly. Once opened, store airtight in the fridge for one to two weeks, or freezer for up to a month. A tight-fitting tupperware or a plastic bag is best to keep the tortillas airtight.
Heat a frying pan (no oil!) to very hot. Once hot, heat your tortilla on each side until it is soft and floppy, about 10 seconds each side. Alternately heat your tortillas in a hot sandwich press for about 5 seconds. Wrap your tortillas in foil or a thick cloth to stay warm and soften further.
If you are re-heating lots of tortillas at once, place your tortillas in piles of 2 to 4 on the frying pan or sandwich press, instead of individually. This will speed up the process! Remember to wrap the pile in foil or a thick cloth once heated, and then in a tortilla basket or casserole dish to keep them warm as you heat up the rest.
Our tortillas come with several weeks shelf life. Each packet will be marked with a best before date. Our tortillas do not contain any preservatives, so once opened please eat them within two weeks.
