About

PALMEX Mini Tornillo pellets de trigo are un-fried wheat-flour screws in a bite-size format. Dropped into hot oil, they expand almost instantly into airy, crunchy duros ready to be dusted with salt, chili, or lime. This pantry-friendly bag is perfect for anyone who goes through duros by the batch.

How to Use

Heat oil to roughly 375°F. Drop a handful of pellets in – they puff within seconds. Remove as soon as they finish expanding, drain on paper towels, then season while still warm. Store un-fried pellets in a cool, dry place and fry only what you need.
