To Warm Tortillas

2.5

(2)

Traditionally tortillas are heated a few at a time on a hot comal, or griddle, for a few seconds on either side and stacked as heated in a cloth-lined tortilla basket with a cover. The oven method we recommend here is useful for heating many tortillas at once.

Ingredients

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Wrap stacks of 8 tortillas in foil and chill in sealable plastic bags until ready to heat. Tortillas may be wrapped and chilled 6 hours ahead.

    Step 2

    Preheat oven to 350° F.

    Step 3

    As needed, heat foil packages in oven 12 to 15 minutes, or until hot. Unwrap packages and transfer tortillas to a cloth-lined basket and cover with cloth.
