Categories     Sauces

Yield 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 tomatoes
1 cup onion
6 -8 serrano chili peppers, seeded
2 tablespoons cilantro or 2 tablespoons Italian parsley, chopped
4 teaspoons salt
4 teaspoons fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon cumin
2 cloves garlic
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 banana peppers (mild)

Steps:

  • Cut the tomatoes into chunks and put them in a colander to drain juice, reserve liquid since you may need it later.
  • Put oil, lime juice, and serrano peppers and a couple of jalapenos in a blender, and chop up very fine. If it's too thick add a little juice from tomatoes.
  • Chop onions in food processor, not too fine, chop tomatoes in processor, not too fine, fine chop garlic in processor, add cilantro to processor ( I add a couple of mild banana peppers for taste) I also use Italian parsley in place of cilantro, If it's too hot for your taste add more tomatoes .
  • I puree the peppers, so when you eat it, you can taste the flavor of the vegetables, then you get the taste of the hot peppers (I used some small about one inch long peppers much stronger than jalapenos.)

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will make a big difference in the taste of your salsa. Look for tomatoes that are deeply colored and free of blemishes.
  • Use a variety of tomatoes: Combining different types of tomatoes will give your salsa a more complex flavor. Try using a mix of Roma, cherry, and heirloom tomatoes.
  • Remove the seeds from the tomatoes: This will help to prevent your salsa from becoming watery.
  • Chop the tomatoes into small pieces: This will help the salsa to salsa better. You can also use a food processor to chop the tomatoes, but be careful not to over-process them.
  • Add your favorite ingredients: There are many different ways to customize your salsa. Some popular additions include onions, cilantro, jalapeños, lime juice, and salt.
  • Taste your salsa as you go: This will help you to adjust the flavors to your liking. If you find that your salsa is too spicy, you can add more tomatoes or lime juice. If you find that it is too bland, you can add more salt or jalapeños.

Conclusion:

Fresh salsa is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used to add flavor to a variety of dishes. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious salsa that will impress your friends and family.
