Ancient Methods

Yoli Tortilleria prides itself in producing the best quality stone ground corn tortillas. Our tortillas are crafted utilizing the ancient method of nixtamalization, where the corn is cooked with food grade lime.

After rinsing, the cooked corn is stone ground using hand-carved volcanic stones resulting in a soft and finely ground masa.

This masa is then run through our tortilla oven and the result is a quality tortilla with superb flavors.

HOnoring tradition through authenticity and quality

Yoli Tortilleria was founded in 2017 by Marissa and Mark Gencarelli to recreate the authentic tortillas Marissa remembered from her childhood in Sonora, Mexico. Driven by a commitment to quality and tradition, Yoli produces stone-ground heirloom corn tortillas and Sonoran-style flour tortillas, among other products, while using sustainable practices and quality ingredients.

Yoli's name, derived from the Aztec word for "to live," embodies their mission to craft hand-made, authentic foods inspired by centuries of Mesoamerican tradition and personal family heritage. By integrating ancient processes with local, seasonal ingredients, Yoli Tortilleria strives to honor and celebrate Mexico’s culinary heritage through our products.
