Blue Corn Totopos (Tortilla Chips)

La Tortilleria’s Blue Corn Totopos are artisan tortilla chips crafted using traditional nixtamalization methods, incorporating blue corn to offer a distinctive flavor and visual appeal.Blue corn is renowned in Mexico for its richer, nuttier taste and higher nutritional value compared to regular corn.These tortilla chips are made from wholegrain, stone-ground blue corn tortillas, resulting in a product that is both deliciously crunchy and robust enough to hold up to hearty dips and toppings. ​

Ideal for dipping into guacamole, salsa, or ceviche, these chips also elevate traditional Mexican dishes like chilaquiles and nachos, where their sturdy texture absorbs flavors without becoming soggy. ​
