Notes

  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the tomatoes, the better your salsa will taste. Our favorite tomatoes include new girls.
  • Adjust the heat: If you like things spicy, keep the jalapeño seeds in or add an extra pepper. For a milder version, remove the seeds or use a different type of pepper.
  • Consistency matters: For a thinner salsa, add a little more lime juice or water. If you like it chunky, chop the ingredients finely or pulse less in the blender.
