'''Tortilla de Rescoldo''' is a white bread that was backed in the hot ash of a fire. Most puestos don't have a proper oven to bake bread but use the accumulated ash of the fireplace instead. The dough is made as usual with wheat flour, salt and (dry) yeast. After the dough was prepared and given the typical rest the dough is gently put in a pit in the hot ash and then also covered with hot ash. After about 10 to 15 min the bread is turned and covered with hot ash again to bake it evenly on both sides. To not burn the bread the hot ash must be free of glowing not completely burned woodcharcoal. It requires a quite some experience to get the temperature and the timing right. Also the fireplace that was used must be in use for days or weeks to accumulate sufficent ash. A regular typical campfire will not work because the fire itself is to hot and amount of ash is insufficient. '''Sopapilla''' is fried white bread. The same standard dough made off wheat flour, salt and (dry) yeast is used. Round flat dough-cakes with a hole in the middle are put into hot oil of fat
