Patent number: 12616213Abstract: A method of manufacture and a composition for the technology as disclosed herein, which includes a method of manufacture and composition for a dough tortilla item including protein. The dough tortilla composition as disclosed and claimed herein can be manufactured using a corn masa based flour and/or utilizing other grain based flours such corn, rice, barley. For one implementation of the technology other leguminous based flours or chestnut base flours, or various bean base powder, or cauliflower based powders used individually or in combination with any of the other types of flours described herein. The technology as disclosed and claimed provides a dough based tortilla or other dough based item that is a protein enhanced alternative to conventional tortillas and other dough based products.
