Basics Of Salsa
Salsa is a savoury sauce made using a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables such as tomatoes, bell peppers, chillies, mango, and herbs. The main ingredients are finely chopped, crushed, or mashed.
Don’t puree it. A little texture adds to the flavour. The seasonings help the ingredients secrete their natural juices, making the salsa juicy and saucy. A combination of crushed and finely chopped tomatoes works like magic.
The golden rule of tomato salsa is to chill it for at least an hour before serving to allow the flavours to mature and for tomatoes to release their juices. My SECRET TIP: Pulse all the ingredients in a food processor. Once done, add finely chopped onion, cilantro, and tomato. Mix!
Serving Suggestion
Fresh homemade salsa is a multi-purpose condiment that can be used in a variety of ways. Serve salsa with nachos, tacos, burritos, or BBQ, either way, it simply tastes delicious.
