Tortilla
Posted by iVi | Filed under Food & Drink
The tortilla is the main diet of the Mexicans and is made from corn. Here the kernels are cooked for removing the husk and then grounded on a stone slab with a grinding stone. The dough is divided into small round balls and patted with the hand into thin cakes or wrapped in the husk of the corn to be filled and eaten.
The tortilla is used for enchiladas and tacos. In America and the northern part of Mexico tortilla is made of flour and they became popular because of their low prices due to inferior quality of flour that was shipped.
