On all our packaging and recipes we recommend that the ideal way to warm tortillas - for fajitas, or anything else in fact - is either in a hot pan or a microwave. Whilst both methods are just fine, there is an even better way: naked flame. Hold the tortillas with a pair of tongs over the gas flame for a couple of seconds each side and it gives a toasted flavour that is unique. It also works on a very hot electric ring or even straight on the hot plate of an Aga. Just allow a couple of seconds then turn when you see light scorch marks. Too much and they will burn. Too little and you won't develop the full flavour. Practice really does make perfect.
And once you've warmed your tortillas through you have to keep them warm. We always use a proper Mexican tortillas basket or 'tortillero'. Alternatively, wrap them in a clean kitchen towel.
So next time you cook with our tortillas make sure you "scorch 'em". We'll happily take the credit for the flavour, but not for any resulting kitchen fires.
