tortilla

n. flat Mexican bread of cornmeal or flour

In Mexico, Central America, the United States, and Canada, a tortilla is a kind of thin, unleavened flat bread, made from finely ground maize (corn) or wheat flour. A similar bread from South America is called arepa. The maize version is the original North American tortilla and is regarded by many as the "authentic" tortilla. However, it would be inaccurate to discount flour tortillas as "inauthentic," as flour tortillas originated in regions of Mexico unsuited for growing corn. In fact, this form of bread pre-dates the arrival of Europeans to America, and was only called "tortilla" by the Spanish from its resemblance to the traditional Spanish round unleavened cakes and omelettes (originally made without potatoes, which are native to South America).
