Just trying to get ideas to improve my recipe. It's pretty standard...

1 or 2 tomatoes
1 can of peeled Mexican style tomatoes
1/2 red onion
1 to 2 teaspoons of garlic
Cilantro
Jalapeño
Salt and pepper
Olive oil
White vinegar
1/2 lime

Consider a good pinch of Messican oregano.

8 Roma tomatoes
half white onion
half a bunch of cilantro
1 jalapeño
salt
lime juice

eta for this: boil tomatoes and jalapeño until rolling.. then throw 2-3 tomatoes the jalapeño the cilantro and onion in blender until liquid.. them throw other tomatoes in and pulse while adding the salt and lime to taste..


sometimes I would leave a little bit in the bottom of the blender and put a scoop of cream cheese and it's a little like a quesso

4-6 5x6 tomatoes, left whole
1 red onion, sliced into 1/2 rings
2 Serrano chilis
1 TBS chopped cilantro
3 limes
2 TBS salt

Roast the tomatoes, red onions, & serranos over a fire (preferably wood) until skins are charred. Skin & deseed the peppers, core & rough chop the tomatoes, chop the red onions. Place these ingredients into a food processor & purée until smooth. Add chopped cilantro, lime juice, & salt (adjust seasonings to personal preference).

I don't have a single recipe for salsa. I do a lot of different salsas because I like taste of fresh fruits, herbs, and peppers together. I like simple food and the key for me is really good, fresh ingredients.

I use it as a condiment or to top a main dish. I have no idea how many types of salsa I've made.

When I lived in Orlando, the best salsa I had was at a place called Chevy's.



Being back in my hometown now, it's easily a jar of Casa Manana salsa. That stuff is awesome.

Now that you said that, you're right. We always got a small bowl of salsa, compared to the amount of chips that are served with it.

I like a little bell pepper in mine. And depending what's its for, a little fruit like mango or avacado. Also, I like roasted corn and black beans in it

when do you add the acid into the salsa? I have read that you should all acids at the end of the process (lime juice vinegar) because it cooks out when its really hot...
