Steps:
- Dice the tomatoes (Plese use a knife and cutting board, if you use a food processor it cuts them to fine and you will have salsa soup).
- Dice the red onion and jalepeno(s) adjust to taste, if you like it spicy add the seeds and use 2, if you like a mild salsa scrape out the seeds and don't use them -- we add 2 peppers seeds and all, we love it spicy!
- Finely Chop up the Fresh Cilantro, stems and all, measure out a cup. *This is a loose measurement, if you want more or less, you can add it, this is a recipe to taste*.
- Add the tomatoes, onions, cilantro and jalepenos to a bowl, add salt and the fresh ground black pepper to taste. Add in the freshly squeezed lime juice and stir.
- Taste it and see if it is the way you like it, if it needs more of anything add it -- if you want it hotter still add some hot sauce, a couple of drops at a time.
- Once it is hot, salty or sour enough, stir well and put in the fridge untill ready to serve.

Tips:
- Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will make a big difference in the taste of your salsa. Look for ripe, juicy tomatoes that are free of blemishes.
- Use a variety of tomatoes: Don't be afraid to mix and match different types of tomatoes to create a more complex flavor. For example, you could use a combination of Roma tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, and heirloom tomatoes.
- Roast your tomatoes: Roasting tomatoes intensifies their flavor and gives them a slightly smoky taste. If you have the time, roast your tomatoes before making your salsa.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as cilantro, basil, and oregano, can add a lot of flavor to your salsa. Be sure to use fresh herbs, as dried herbs will not have the same flavor.
- Don't over-process your salsa: Salsa is best when it has a bit of texture. Don't over-process your salsa in the food processor or blender. You want it to be chunky, not smooth.
- Adjust the heat to your liking: If you like your salsa spicy, add more jalapeños. If you prefer a milder salsa, remove the seeds from the jalapeños before adding them to the salsa.
Conclusion:
Fresh salsa is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used to add flavor to a variety of dishes. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little experimentation, you can create a salsa that is perfect for your taste. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy way to add flavor to your meal, reach for a bowl of fresh salsa. You won't be disappointed!
