They've got salsa kits at Trader Joe's, but the vegetables in the plastic containers don't look that fresh. Post some salsa recipes here.

Usually I just combine tomatoes, onion, jalapeños, fresh cilantro, cumin, garlic, salt and pepper in a bowl. If I'm feeling randy, maybe I add bell peppers or mangoes or something.

10/17/2007 2:54:00 AM

tomatoes, jalapenos, onions, salt, pepper, cilantro to taste, and...

PEACHES

yeah... that shit is GOOD.

10/17/2007 5:27:53 AM

1 small bag frozen corn
2 cans black beans (drained)
1/2 bundle citantro fresh (chopped)
1 large or 2 small cans of tomatoes (diced)
1 red pepper (chopped in small pieces)
2 1/2 tbsp Tiger Sauce

Mix together 1/2 cup of sugar, 1/3 cup of white vinegar, 1/3 cup of olive oil and 2 1/2 tbsp tiger sauce with other ingredients.

make sure the tiger sauce is made from fresh tigers.

10/17/2007 10:02:04 AM

I just made some on Monday:

1 can diced tomatoes
1 can rotel tomatoes
2 pablano peppers
2 small yellow onions
1 jalapeno (including seeds and membrane)
1 clove garlic
1/2 bunch cilantro
Juice from 1 lime
Add salt, pepper, cumin, garlic powder to taste.

Very basic recipe I would say, but you can definitely add to it. Adding chipotle peppers are awesome and give that smokey flavor. Definitely want to take out the jalapeno though if you do that as the chipotles and the adobo sauce are hot as crap.

i make a killer guac

Jen makes an absurd salsa.

10/17/2007 10:31:26 AM

homemade salsa is the bomb. i got all my ingredients at the Farmers Market. Shit gets kinda messy if you take the skin off the tomato.

10/17/2007 1:03:32 PM

Vix makes good salsa.

10/17/2007 1:04:14 PM

my mom makes the most awsome salsa ever. Mom makes it in like half gallon batches but they usually only last about 2 days. In HS, if my friends knew mom had made some there would end up with 10 ppl in my living room fighting over the bowl. Good times

I wish i would cook like my mom

10/17/2007 2:54:13 PM

What about some good guacamole recipes? I <3 advocado.

10/17/2007 3:47:40 PM

People here beg me to make my guac, it's super easy.

2-3 avocados
1 small onion, chopped
fresh chopped cilantro, to taste
chopped jalapenos or chipolte peppers, to taste
1 tablespoon garlic paste
2-3 teaspoons cumin
1-2 teaspoons black pepper

Mash the avocados with a fork in a bowl. Mix everything else in. Devour.

10/17/2007 8:03:29 PM

When I make guac I have a hard time keeping it fresh. What can I do so it lasts more than a few hours?

10/17/2007 8:11:01 PM

unfortunately it only lasts for a few days though...

10/17/2007 8:36:16 PM

^^^ Oh shit, I forgot the lime. Put some fresh lime in there too. I usually put in about a third of a lime and another third in my salsa.

The lime will also help keep the guacamole from browning immediately. Keeping it covered also helps. But no matter what, fresh guac will turn after 2 or 3 days.

10/17/2007 9:13:41 PM

Damn, those recipes look killer. I'm going to try them--thanks.

10/18/2007 1:24:14 AM

the salsa recipe from "The Grit" cookbook is some of the best salsa i've ever made.

10/18/2007 1:36:13 AM

What chips do you guys generally use? I really like Tostitos gold chips but they are kinda small.

10/18/2007 10:43:48 AM

^ any kind of blue corn chips go really good with salsa in my opinion. whole foods has really good chips that they make too.

10/18/2007 6:45:55 PM

10/18/2007 6:48:13 PM
