Notes
NotesUse the freshest ingredients: Fresh tomatoes, onions, and cilantro make a big difference.
Don’t puree the salsa: Keep some texture for the best results.
Adjust the heat: Add more or less jalapeno based on your spice preference.
Tweak the flavors: Add more lime juice or salt to suit your taste.
Let it sit: If you have time, let the salsa sit for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
No food processor? No problem: You can use a blender or chop everything finely by hand.
Add a pinch of sugar: If you find the salsa too acidic, a pinch of sugar can balance it out.
Strain if watery: If the salsa is too watery, strain half of it to remove some liquid.
