How to Make Taco Shells

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Lightly grease a wire rack with cooking spray (or use parchment paper) and place it on a baking sheet.
  3. Drape 6-8 corn or flour tortillas over the individual rungs of the wire rack, ensuring they don't overlap.
  4. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Keep a close eye on them to prevent burning.
  5. Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the taco shells cool slightly on the rack before gently removing them and filling.
