ADDICTING SWEET AND SOUR SALSA



Addicting Sweet and Sour Salsa image

I went to my nephews graduation party. I had one bite of this salsa and had to track down the person that brought it. She was nice enough to email it to me. YUM!! It looks beautiful in a jar with nice ribbon for Hostess gift! Great for BBQ's (great over grilled chicken). Great with Tortilla chips. I have not taken this recipe anywhere with out having a recipe request- Chef Note: I like to chop vegies and keep them in a ziploc bag and put together with the juice a couple hours prior to event- I like crisper vegies. Other family members prefer the vegies to be marinated longer - So it is really just a matter of taste.

SWEET AND MILD COOKED TOMATO SALSA



Sweet and Mild Cooked Tomato Salsa image

When fresh tomatoes from my garden start ripening faster than I can eat them fresh, I make this salsa. I modified the recipe to match my taste for sweet salsa with just a bit of zip. I freeze peeled tomatoes so that I can have the garden-fresh taste in winter, too.

2 1/4 cups fresh or frozen pitted sour cherries (3/4 lb)
1 tablespoon sugar
3 tablespoons finely chopped red onion (1/2 small)
1 large fresh jalapeño chile, finely chopped, including seeds (1 1/2 tablespoons)
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

  • Use a variété of fruits: Don't be afraid to mix and match different fruits to create a unique and flavorful salsa. Some good combinations include pineapple, mango, strawberries, and kiwis.
  • Add some heat: If you like your salsa with a little bit of heat, add some chili peppers or cayenne pepper to taste. Start with a small amount and adjust to your desired level of spiciness.
  • Sweeten it up: If you find the salsa is too sour, add a little bit of honey, sugar, or agave nectar to taste. You can also use a fruit juice like pineapple juice or orange juice to add sweetness.
  • Chill before serving: Refrigerate the salsa for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld. This will also make the salsa more refreshing on a hot day.
