Tlayudas are large crisp tortillas and are on the table for almost all meals and no eating utensils are used, only tlayudas. Tear off a piece and use it as a spoon to eat mole. Fold a piece over to make a little taco stuffed with a bite sized morsel. And they work as a "doggie bag" to take food home. A couple underneath, the food, and a couple as a cover. Ready to go.

Tlayudas!
Here are the women of Teotitlan del Valle making hundreds (thousands) of tlayudas for the recent fiesta at Casa Cruz. They make it look so easy, but believe me, it is sooo hard. I've never met a man who could do it and we laugh about it all the time. "Who me? No, I can't do it."
