A tortilla is a circular flatbread (12–18 cm in diameter and 1–2 mm thick). It is made of nixtamalized masa, cooked on a (clay or metal) comal, where it is turned three times until puffed and ready for consumption. It is served as an accompaniment to food, or consumed as part of other simple or more elaborate dishes [9]. Photographs by Alma Lili Cárdenas Marcelo (2020)
