Salsa Recipe

Buying the 'right' salsa is always difficult and in a rush you pick whatever is on the shelf...
why not make your own salsa?

Here is an easy to make salsa recipe that always comes out very tasty.
The secret here is to have a sharp knife and the right chiles.

To make salsa for 3 people

Ingredients:

4 tomatoes
1/2 white onion (must be white onion, NOTHING else)
cilantro
salt

*** this ingredient is up to your withstanding of hotness.
chile:
hawaian chili pepper (hot but sweet)
habanero (just plain hot)
jalapeno (sweet at first then spicy)
serrano (just awful, don't even try it)

Directions:

Dice the tomatoes. Cut the tomato in half. Take one of the halves and make small cuts thru the center (about 3). Turn the tomato over on the skin side and cut tru the cuts to make smaller square pieces. If this doesn't make sense... micro dice the tomato getting clean square cuts.
Add into clean bowl.

Dice the white onion the same way you did the tomato. Add to bowl.

Dice the cilantro. Best way is to bunch up the cilantron into a little ball and cut thru. Add to bowl.

Pour tomato juice out from the bowl.
Make sure not to touch the chili with your hands, it will burn for hours.
Dice your chili of choice. Use a small spoon to scoop into bowl.

Mix all ingredients together in bowl and add salt to taste.


*** when choosing the tomatoes pick a red almost ripe tomato. It must have a somewhat hard texture, smell it to make sure it doesn't smell sour. When preparing the tomato, cut the "butt" off and then begin to dice.

Pair your salsa with corn chips and you're good to go.

Happy dipping!!!
