Ingredients
- 2 scallions , washed and trimmed
- 1 garlic clove
- 1/2 onion red
- 1/2 cup cilantro divided, fresh leaves
- 1/4 cup parsley divided, leaves
- 1 jalapeno pepper ( optional, seeded or not)
- 1 whole tomatoes canned
- 1/2 teaspoon salt or to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon oregano dried
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- lime juice of 1
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 2 teaspoons olive oil optional for storing, extra virgin
Notes
- Use Canned Whole Tomatoes without water for sweet and fresh tomato taste.
- Gather your ingredients, and feel free to add extra spice or remove the jalapenos.
- For best texture: process everything minus the tomatoes first. This trick offers you small chunks of onions, herbs and jalapenos with similar size chunks of tomatoes.
- When you add tomatoes to the food processor make sure to pulse only, not process.This way you control the size of the tomatoes you like in your homemade salsa.
- Adjust the watery content of your sauce by adding a tablespoon at a time of tomato juice form he can, and make sure you mix that in with a spoon or spatula. No more processing.
- Ketchup is KEY to balance the acidity of the tomatoes, and lime. Also is key in holding the consistency of the salsa together.
- Use the salsa right away or store it in a sealed container in the fridge using a special trick. Add a thin layer ( teaspoon) of olive oil over the top.
- Preferably don't freeze, but if you want to then you can cook the salsa a bit or make it thick to start with. Also once defrosted, add a zest of lie, cilantro and a fresh tomato diced.
- Add extra jalapenos, corn, beans, avocado, and anything you like to this salsa!
- ENJOY!
