About CORN TORTILLAS
Los Angeles Corn Tortillas are traditional masa-based tortillas made from white corn cooked with lime water -- the nixtamalization process -- with sodium propionate, cellulose gum, and fumaric acid added as preservatives and texture agents. Per 100 g, they deliver 250 calories, 50 g of carbohydrates, 7.1 g of protein, 1.8 g of fat, and 5.4 g of dietary fiber. The nixtamalization process increases calcium and niacin bioavailability and reduces mycotoxin content compared to raw corn. The relatively high fiber content reflects the whole corn masa base. Sodium propionate inhibits mold growth. Cellulose gum aids moisture retention and prevents cracking during handling. Contains no gluten, dairy, or eggs, making these tortillas broadly suitable for vegan and gluten-free diets. A staple ingredient in Mexican cuisine, widely used for tacos, enchiladas, tostadas, and flautas.
