Cutting Ingredients to Make Quesadillas
Hi my name is J and I'm going to be talking to your guys today on behalf of expertvillage.com and I'm going to go on with the quesadilla receipt. What we are going to do we are going to actually teach you how to cut all the ingredients. First we are going to start off with the tomato you want to get your tomato and you want to cut the ends off. Now this end you see all of that extra flesh that is still a good tomato. What you want to do is go around that now the flesh part of the tomato is the best. You definitely want to get rid of all the seeds by deseeding a tomato. Deseeding means that you are just going to want go around this, go over here in the trash can, take out all that seed cause it is not usable. Flesh side down, cut it into strips and chop and this is going to be used for the pico de gallo or it is going to be a mango pico de gallo. What you want to do is you want to get all the ingredients and slide them into your bowl. Now for this pico de gallo I'm just going to use 1 half of a tomato. Now clean off your cutting board and now you are going to want to cut the onion. With the onion you want to cut off the skin so it is definitely not usable. There might even be another layer down there that you can't even see. Let me get rid off that. Now with the onion what you want to do is you want to make little squares all the way across but you don't want to go all the way to the end of the onion. Now what you do is you go across like that and what this is going to do it would help you get beautiful little chunks and all these little chunks is going to go in there. And again I'm just cooking for myself so I'm not going to make so much. I'm going to use less then half of the onion and that is how to cut the onion and tomato.
