Oaxacan Cheese Quesadilla with Whipped Avocado, Hatch Chili and Roasted Corn Salsa
Chef Savannah (presenting to judges): "When I got Oaxaca cheese, my first thought was quesadilla, so I just kind of leaned straight into that. I have a white hominy tortilla made from scratch and cooked to order with a whipped avocado and hatch chili."
Judges (behind the scenes)
"Fantastic."
"That crunch with the corn and then that nice little heat. Really traditional and delicious. Lots of critique on her dish, but I still liked it."
Kristen Kish: "I liked it. I don't know, maybe I'm unpopular, but that it was just too much cheese."
Tom Colicchio: "Get out of Wisconsin."
