About this Recipe
A tortilla is a thin, circular unleavened flatbread made originally from maize hominy meal, but now also from wheat flour. Tortillas were known as tlaxcalli by the Aztecs and other Nahuatl speakers. Tortillas, which were invented by the indigenous peoples of Mesoamerica prior to colonisation, are a staple of Mesoamerican cuisine. The word tortilla comes from the Spanish word tort, which means cake and it was first used in the mid-1600s. The food, a thin flatbread made from dried and finely ground corn, can be traced back thousands of years to the people of Mexicos Sierra Madre Mountains.

Who decided to make the tortilla first?
According to legend, Tortillas were invented by a Mayan peasant for his hungry king. Tortillas were first used around 10,000 years ago and were made from corn. When the Spaniards arrived, they discovered that native inhabitants such as the Aztecs and others all ate some form of maize bread.
