Tips:
- Choose fresh, ripe ingredients: The quality of your salsa will depend on the quality of your ingredients. Look for ripe, juicy tomatoes, fresh cilantro, and flavorful onions and peppers.
- Use a variety of tomatoes: Don't be afraid to mix and match different types of tomatoes. 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 your salsa a smoky, delicious taste. To roast tomatoes, simply toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper and roast them in a preheated oven until they are softened and slightly charred.
- Add some heat: If you like spicy salsa, add some chopped jalapeños or serrano peppers. You can also add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like cilantro, basil, and oregano add a ton of flavor to salsa. Chop them finely and add them to your salsa just before serving.
- Season to taste: Once you've combined all of your ingredients, taste your salsa and adjust the seasoning as needed. Add more salt, pepper, or lime juice until it tastes just the way you like it.
