Warming tortillas prevents them from cracking and breaking. Here are three ways to warm your tortillas:
In the oven: Wrap stacks of 8 tortillas in foil; place in a 375 ° F oven for 10 to 15 minutes.
On the range: Turn a gas or electric burner on high. Using tongs, slide one tortilla at a time over the burner for a few seconds, alternating sides, till it’s softened and starting to char. Cover tortillas to keep warm.
In the microwave: Wrap a stack of 8 tortillas in a hardly moist, tidy kitchen towel (or paper towel); microwave on High for 30 to 45 seconds.
