Notes

  • Recipe tips.
  • Store salsa in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • salsa in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • We prefer to use fresh pineapple, but canned pineapple can be used in a pinch.
  • Raw ripe pineapple has a high pH balance, and the acid can cause your mouth to “burn”. Using fresh lime juice helps neutralize the acidity.
  • We love storing salsa in Mason jars, but any airtight container can be used.
  • For milder heat, remove the jalapeño's membrane and seeds; for more heat, include them as desired.
