Ingredients

  • 4 large tomato About the size of a softball, 1 1/3 pounds. I used tomatoes on the vine. Can also use beefsteak or other larger tomato varieties
  • 1 medium jalapeno pepper seeded and diced, can adjust for preferred spicy level
  • ½ medium onion
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar apple cider vinegar or white vinegar can also be used
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice or lemon juice
  • ¼ cup cilantro chopped finely, optional

Instructions

  1. Chop the tomatoes into about eight pieces each, removing the green stems.
  2. Peel the outside of the onion and chop dice it into large pieces. Peel the garlic cloves.
  3. Carefully slice the top stem of the jalapeño and remove. Slice the jalapeño in half longways and carefully remove the seeds and the white membrane inside the pepper. Roughly chop the remaining jalapeño into pieces. See notes for more information about prepping jalapeño.
  4. Add the jalapeno, onion, garlic, vinegar and lime juice to a blender or food processor. Blend or pulse on low to medium speed with quick pulses to chop until pieces are small, at least pea-sized.
  5. Cut the tomatoes into roughly 8 pieces. Add to the blender a handful at a time, pulsing the blender to chop tomatoes. Blend more for a smooth salsa.
  6. Add salt, can add more to taste. Stir in cilantro if desired then enjoy!
