How to cut a wrap to make a quesadilla? ›

You make a cut from the middle of the tortilla down to one edge, fill the different quadrants with fillings, then fold it all up into a neat triangle that can be eaten as is or grilled.

The challenge? They're slapping each other in the face with a tortilla wrap. The pair play a round of rock, paper, scissors and whoever wins gets to slap the other with a tortilla. To win the game, they must both try and hold the water in for as long as possible and through each tortilla slap.

The idea is simple: Instead of layering all your ingredients in one big pile atop a tortilla, put each one in its own quadrant. Then fold the four corners on top of each other to create one perfectly mess-free (but melty, crisp, and golden brown) triangular quesadilla in practically zero time.

In the central and southern regions of Mexico, a quesadilla is a flat circle of cooked corn masa, called a tortilla, warmed to soften it enough to be folded in half, and then filled.

How do you seal the edges of quesadillas? While the melted cheese should be more than enough to keep your quesadilla together, some prefer tightly sealed edges that prevent even the smallest amount of filling from escaping. To achieve this, simply dampen the edges of the tortilla with a bit of water before folding it.

When using store-bought tortillas I prefer using flour tortillas for quesadillas — you can usually find the larger 9- or 10-inch size, which makes them easier to handle. They also fold easier without splitting or crumbling. If you prefer corn tortillas, choose high-quality soft tortillas for best results.
