TANGY TEXAS SALSA



Tangy Texas Salsa image

I'm a "transplant" from Wisconsin currently living in Texas. Even after 20 years, I can't get enough of our wonderful local citrus. This is one way to work it into a main dish. The combination of tangy fruit, spicy jalapeno and distinctive cilantro is perfect over any meat, poultry or fish. We also dip into it with chips. -Lois Kildahl, McAllen, Texas

TEXAS STYLE SALSA



Texas Style Salsa image

Here in texas we have a ton of different recipes for salsa, this is my recipe for the salsa that I like the best. Its a creation of several different recipes. Hope you enjoy it !!!

Provided by Linda3

Categories     Sauces

Time 10m

Yield 1 quart

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 can diced tomato
1 small onion
1 hot jalapeno pepper
2 teaspoons tomato sauce
2 teaspoons garlic salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder

Steps:

  • Chop jalapeno and onion in food processor until chopped but not pureed.
  • Add diced tomatoes, garlic salt, black pepper, cumin, and chili powder and blend for a few seconds more.
  • I like a lot of garlic so you might want to add more for your taste.
  • Serve with tortilla chips or on baked potatoes for a low fat alternative to butter.

Tips:

  • Use ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your salsa will be.
  • Use a variety of tomatoes: Don't be afraid to mix and match different types of tomatoes, such as Roma, cherry, and heirloom tomatoes. This will give your salsa a more complex flavor.
  • Roast your tomatoes: Roasting tomatoes intensifies their flavor and gives them a smoky, caramelized taste. If you have the time, roasting your tomatoes is a great way to take your salsa to the next level.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as cilantro, basil, and oregano, add a bright, herbaceous flavor to salsa. Be sure to chop them finely so that they distribute evenly throughout the salsa.
  • Don't over-process your salsa: Salsa is best when it has a bit of texture. If you over-process it, it will become too smooth and lose its flavor.
  • Taste your salsa as you go: The best way to make sure your salsa is perfect is to taste it as you go and adjust the seasonings accordingly. Add more salt, pepper, or lime juice until you reach the desired flavor.

Conclusion:

Texas-style salsa is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used to add flavor to a variety of dishes. Whether you're using it as a dip for chips or tacos, or as a topping for grilled chicken or fish, Texas-style salsa is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy way to add some flavor to your meal, give Texas-style salsa a try.
