Quesadillas

I had never tried Quesadillas before this visit and I wasn't sure what to expect. The deeply aromatic taste hit immediately and made sense of the dish in a way descriptions never quite do. dried ancho chilli is an ingredient I'd not encountered used quite like this before. The a home kitchen on a S…

What sets Quesadillas apart is the handling of Mexican chocolate. In lesser versions this is treated as a background note. Here it's central and the bright and citrusy result shows it. I've started buying it to cook with at home after this experience. pre-Columbian ingredients like corn, beans, and…

Quesadillas opened a door into a cuisine I'd previously known almost nothing about. The deeply aromatic flavours are unlike anything in my usual rotation and I mean that positively. Mexican cuisine is a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. Understanding that context made the dish taste different — r…

I spent three months trying every version of Quesadillas I could find locally. The variation in quality is extraordinary. The best version handled masa harina with genuine knowledge and the smoky and earthy result was noticeably superior. Mexican cuisine is a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. Th…

I'm sceptical of any restaurant claiming to do Quesadillas well, having been disappointed often enough. This one delivered.

Having eaten Quesadillas at several restaurants over the past year, I can say this version is the best. The deeply aromatic quality is more pronounced here than anywhere else I've tried. tomatillo is handled with real knowledge — you can taste the difference. This is proper a home kitchen on a Sund…

I've now had Quesadillas prepared traditionally and in a modern interpretation. Both are interesting. The traditional version emphasises tomatillo in the way Mexican cuisine is a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. The deeply aromatic character is more pronounced and direct. The modern interpretat…

I went in with low expectations — I'd had mediocre versions before. What I found was Quesadillas made with real commitment to epazote and technique. The complex and layered with chilli result was more complex and satisfying than anything I'd had before. Mexican cuisine is a UNESCO Intangible Cultur…

I ate Quesadillas at three different restaurants in the same week to compare. The results were illuminating. The use of Mexican chocolate varied significantly — only one got it right. The complex and layered with chilli profile should be consistent but interpretation differs widely. pre-Columbian i…
