To heat flour tortillas in the oven, you'll need to preheat it to a medium-low temperature, around 350°F (175°C). While you're waiting for the oven to heat up, you can wrap your tortillas in a damp paper towel, which will help to retain moisture and keep them from drying out. It's like giving them a little spa treatment, right?
Now, once your oven is ready, you can place the wrapped tortillas inside for about 20-30 seconds on each side. You'll know they're done when they're soft and slightly puffed up, like a little cloud. It's a pretty cool transformation, if you ask me.
But what's happening during this process, exactly? Well, the heat from the oven is reactivating the starches in the tortillas, making them more pliable and easier to roll. It's like a little science experiment, and the result is a tortilla that's perfect for wrapping up your favorite foods.
