Homemade Salsa Using A Molcajete
Report
You might be surprised the first time you try salsa made in a molcajete. Crushing the veggies releases additional oils and creates an explosion of flavor that traditional salsas don't have. So good!

Ingredients
- 3 Roma tomato
- 1/2 onion
- 1/2 jalapeño
- 1 garlic clove
- salt to taste
Instructions
- Rinse and de-stem the tomatoes. Roast the tomatoes in the oven at 400F for 20 minutes or so.
- Finely chop the 1/2 onion, 1/2 jalapeno, and single garlic clove. Add these ingredients to the molcajete along with a pinch of salt. Use the pestle to grind the ingredients together.
- Once roasted, add the tomatoes to the molcajete and combine well with the other ingredients.
- Salt to taste.
- Serve immediately and store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge.
Notes
- The first time you make homemade salsa I typically recommend adding the heat (jalapeno) incrementally. I would recommend that for this Salsa de Molcajete as well, so if you want a milder version you can consider starting with only 1/4 jalapeno.
- I use the oven, but you can roast the tomatoes any way you see fit. I typically do not roast the other ingredients but you can't go wrong experimenting with that.
