What is a telera roll?

A telera roll is a type of Mexican bread roll that is commonly used for making tortas, a popular type of sandwich in Mexican cuisine. Telera rolls are oval in shape with a slightly crispy crust and a soft, fluffy interior. They are typically made with wheat flour, water, yeast, and salt, and may also contain a small amount of sugar.

Telera rolls are often split in half and filled with various meats, cheeses, and vegetables to make tortas. They can also be used for making sandwiches or enjoyed on their own as a side dish. Telera rolls are widely available in Mexican bakeries and grocery stores, and are a staple in many Mexican households. They are best when eaten fresh, but can also be frozen and reheated for later use.
