How Long Do Tortillas Last?
At Tortilla Familia, we know that getting your hands on authentic Sonoran flour or fresh corn tortillas is exciting â but keeping them fresh is key to making the most of every bite.
So letâs answer one of the most common questions we hear:
How long do tortillas last?
𫱠First Things First...
When your tortillas arrive, theyâre fresh â handmade in Sonora, Mexico, cooked only after you order, and shipped straight to your door. That freshness is part of what makes Tortilla Familia different.
Once you receive them, open the package and separate the tortillas one by one â just like flipping pages in a book. This keeps them from sticking together and helps each tortilla breathe. After that, store them in a Ziploc bag for maximum freshness.
Try one straight from the bag. Yes, theyâre that good.
 What Comes Next?
If you donât plan to eat all your tortillas within 2â3 weeks, freeze the extras. Our flour tortillas freeze incredibly well because of how theyâre made.
Only refrigerate the ones youâll eat soon â this keeps them soft, pliable, and ready for mealtime.
-
Fridge: Up to 3 weeks
-
Freezer: Up to 6 months
-
Room Temp: 5â7 days max (we donât recommend it unless youâre camping đ )
Last but not leastâŠ
When itâs time to eat, defrost tortillas in the fridge overnight or on the counter for a few hours.
Then warm them up:
-
On a skillet (best texture)
-
On a comal (most authentic)
-
In the microwave (fastest option â wrap in a paper towel or tortilla warmer for 15â30 seconds)
Theyâll come back to life and taste just like the day they were made.
đœ What About Corn Tortillas?
Corn tortillas are a little different. Ours are vacuum-sealed and uncooked, so youâll want to follow this care guide:
-
Store unopened in a cool, dry place
-
Once opened, refrigerate immediately
-
Must be cooked over direct heat before eating
-
Enjoy within 30 days of opening
These tortillas are best served hot â soft on the inside, lightly charred on the outside.
