Welcome to the image collection dedicated to tortillas — traditional flatbreads that hold an important place in the cuisines of various peoples, especially in Mexico and Spain.

A tortilla is a thin round flatbread, usually made from corn or wheat flour. In Mexico, tortillas are traditionally made from corn flour (masa harina), which gives them a distinctive flavor and unique texture, while in Spain, the term "tortilla" also refers to a popular dish — an omelette with potatoes and onions.

In the image collection, tortillas can be seen in different stages and forms of preparation: from fresh, soft, and flexible flatbreads to toasted and lightly browned over an open flame. Such flatbreads can be spacious and thin, ideal for wrapping various fillings, or denser and thicker, often served as a standalone item.

Tortillas are often depicted surrounded by salsa, guacamole, various types of meat, cheese, beans, and vegetables, highlighting their role as a base for tacos, burritos, enchiladas, and many other dishes. Additionally, in some variations, tortillas can be seen on a skillet frying to a golden crust, demonstrating aspects of the cooking process.

Tortillas are characterized by their versatility and diversity: their size ranges from small, palm-sized ones to large ones used as a base for big portions. The ingredients used and recipe variations may depend on region and cultural traditions, affecting the texture, flavor, and appearance of the product.

The tortilla photo collection covers various usage contexts — from traditional home kitchens and markets to modern restaurants and street food scenes, where they are an important part of the gastronomic heritage and everyday life of many people.
