Notes
Secret Tips for the Perfect Turkey & Hummus Wrap
- Dry Your Veggies: After washing your cucumber slices, tomatoes, or greens, blot them dry with paper towels. This prevents sogginess and keeps the wrap fresh, especially if prepping ahead.
- Double-Layer for Structure: If your tortilla tends to tear or you’re using extra fillings, overlap two tortillas slightly. It gives the wrap more strength without making it too bready.
- Chill Before Slicing: Let the wrap rest seam-side down in the fridge for 15 to 20 minutes before slicing. This helps the ingredients bind and makes for cleaner cuts.
- Season Your Veggies: Lightly salt cucumbers and tomatoes before adding them to the wrap. It enhances flavor and draws out water you can dab off to avoid sogginess.
- Start with Greens: Place a layer of spinach or greens directly on the hummus. It acts as a moisture barrier and helps the wrap hold its shape.
- Use a Serrated Knife: Always slice the wrap with a sharp serrated knife using a gentle sawing motion. This keeps the layers intact and the presentation clean.
