Our Latin American somethingorother group here at JCI is having a Salsa cooking contest. I looked at Raichelin's recipes which looked ok but if anyone out there has one they particularly like - please post and I will enter. Keep in mind that I have fresh garlic, Jalapeno, Habanero and Cayenne peppers and tomatoes in the garden so something that uses some or all of that would be fun. I cannot imagine how hot salsa would be that used all three peppers.
So my favorite salsa is Mango Salsa:
ReplyDelete1/2 red onion diced as small as you can stand to dice with out mincing.
1 Mango diced into small cubes. I recommend cutting it in half (acknowledging there is a pit) leaving the skin on. Use your knive to score it into the squares. Then turn it inside out and slices off the cubes.
1 or 2 jalepenos diced teeny
the juice of two limes (heavily juicing them)
Add Kosher salt and lime till it tastes good -
and add more jalepeno if it does not have the desired kick
