Tortilla de rescoldo or ember tortilla is a traditional Chilean[1] and Northern Argentine[citation needed] flatbread, often unleavened, that was commonly prepared by rural travelers.[1] It consists of a wheat-flour-based bread, traditionally baked in the coals of a campfire or fireplace.[2] It is common street food in populated areas or along roadways and sold by palomitas (little doves).[2][3]
