Mai mee Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 I've got a hankering to make some enchiladas and hues rancheros for a taste of the "old country" but I need corn tortillas to make both. I know I've bought them here before but I can't remember where, and now I can't seem to find them anywhere I've looked, only flour tortillas. I've tried Big C, Makro, and Super cheap, but haven't found them... Any ideas? I'd even make 'em myself if I could find some good coarse ground corn meal, but would of course prefer ready made.

KarenBravo Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Try Villa Market, I think they have the tortillas ready made and also the flour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks KB, I made a quick run through when I was in Chalong last week and didn't see any, but I could have missed them and I didn't ask the staff. Yeah, VM is the go-to place for western food products. If you happen to actually spot them there, could you give me a heads-up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No guarantees, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, today was the day when the manager of Villa has changed the whole lay-out of the shop (idiot!). I saw El Paso hard shell tacos. Soft tortillas, don't know if they are corn, or not (under the bread table). Packets of corn meal, Stone ground corn flour and generic corn flour (not corn starch) on the shelves close to the tills.

beechbum Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Normally have a few different brands of soft tortillas at VM, so I'm guiding they're not on the shelve near the chest freezes now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, under the bread table, left-hand side that is in front of the main entrance. Used to know where everything was before, but, will now have to learn again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mai mee Posted February 26, 2021 Author Share Posted February 26, 2021 Thanks guys, yeah I've got some taco shells from Makro, so VM sounds promising, I'll look diligently next time I'm there (maybe go tomorrow) as the hankering is getting strong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jak2002003 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 In the noodle street stall and small restaurants they sell bags of corn triangle things they call 'geeo' that they eat with the noodles. They are really cheap..about 10 baht a bag and they taste like tortilla. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mai mee Posted March 1, 2021 Author Share Posted March 1, 2021 Got 'em! In the freezer section at Villa Market, along with several varieties of flour tortillas. Tomorrow night it's gonna be green chile chicken enchiladas with rice and beans and a home made Pico de Gallo salsa. Mmmm, mmm, mmmmm! Thanks to all who helped. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
