Talo or Talau (Basque pronunciation: [talo]), also known as pastetx or artopil in Soule, is a typical food of the Basque Country, similar to the traditional corn tortilla of Mesoamerica, made of corn flour, water and a bit of salt. It is round and is cooked in a warm metal plank, named a talo burni ("talo iron"). It can be eaten alone, with various toppings, and is also used as a wrap for various foods.
