Corn Tortilla (14.5cm) - 1kg

Food Service - Corn Tortilla (14.5cm / 1kg)

La Tortilleria’s 14.5cm corn tortillas bring the true taste of Mexico to professional kitchens, offering chefs an authentic, premium-quality base for traditional and modern Mexican dishes. Made from 100% wholegrain Australian-grown corn, these tortillas follow the ancient Aztec process of nixtamalization, where the corn is soaked, stone-ground, pressed, and cooked, ensuring a superior flavour, texture, and structural integrity.

Unlike flour tortillas, which often contain preservatives, gums, and artificial additives to extend shelf life, La Tortilleria’s nixtamal tortillas are made using just corn, water, and lime (calcium hydroxide)—delivering a pure, clean taste without unnecessary ingredients. Their rich, toasted corn flavour and firm texture make them the best way to offer an authentic, delicious, and wholesome experience to customers, enhancing the quality of any dish they’re used in.

Designed for foodservice professionals, these tortillas provide exceptional durability, making them ideal for tacos, burritos, tostadas, quesadillas, and large plate applications. Their aromatic, slightly toasty flavour elevates dishes beyond standard, mass-produced tortillas, giving restaurants and caterers an edge in offering authentic Mexican cuisine.

How to Heat & Serve

For the best texture and flavour, heat tortillas before serving:

On a Hotplate or Pan: Heat for 15-30 seconds per side until warm and slightly charred.

Over an Open Flame: Place tortilla over an open flame for a few seconds on each side for an authentic, smoky touch.

Serve immediately for the best results. Keep warm in a tortilla warmer or wrapped in a clean cloth to maintain softness.
