Do people really not know that tortillas taste better when you warm them up?

This is why wraps have always been mysterious to me—so many of them appear to be unwarmed tortillas and they are disgusting.

Yes. I live in the Midwest and was going to recommend El Milagro.

If you like Salvadoran thick tortillas, all the local Latin markets have them. Look for the brands based in MD.

I can tolerate the TJ home style flour if they are heated on a hot skillet.
I try to buy lots when I go out west and then feeeze them.
Costco used to see dough disks that you could fry at home that weren’t bad.
I’ll have to try the ones at mom’s.

I was wondering if any of the Latino markets in Wheaton make them fresh. There just aren’t tortillerias out here like we have in the southwest, where they make them fresh daily. It might be the number one thing I hate about living out here. Number 2 is the humidity. Number 3 is the mosquitos.


Shoot, when I lived in New Mexico you could buy good tortillas at gas stations. I haven’t found anything good around here. Heating on a hot skillet helps.

Where are these located? Refrigerated or frozen? I've never noticed them.


refrigerated section

Once or twice a year I bring back some from HEB and freeze.
