Does anyone have any true tested Salsa recipes. I have a ton of tomatoes that I would love to use to make some salsa, but I haven't got a clue how to go about making it. I know I could go to a recipe website and search one out but I have no clue what I would end up with.

I just chop up tomatoes, onion, jalepeno and cilantro. Mix in black pepper, sea salt, garlic and lime juice to taste. You can leave this chunky like a pico or put in a blender/processor to make it thinner.

Thanks Texannie it sounds pretty easy, just a couple of questions, what is cilantro and sea salt, I've never heard of those two ingreadients. Also can you can it or freeze it, or does it have to be used rather quickly?

Cilantro is an herb similar to corriander. Sea Salt is just a type of salt. I get it at my grocery store. Not sure about freezing, but you can definitely can it.

Cilantro is coriander. Coriander is most commonly used to refer to the round seeds while the leafy plant itself is called cilantro or chinese parsley.

Jagger--I have a wonderful recipe for salsa (if I do say so myself) It's always a big hit when I make it at parties. I made up this recipe about 10 years ago, and have not made any other kinds of salsa since: 10 tomatoes 1 large red onion 1 bell pepper 4 or 5 jalapenos, rinsed and deseeded 2 mild green chiles 3 or 4 serrano chiles 1 lime (or lime juice) 2 or 3 cloves of garlic (or about 2 tablespoons of jarred minced garlic) 1 bunch of cilantro (use as much as you like) salt n' pepper Chop the vegetables, or stick everything in a food processor. Start with the tomatoes, and make sure they are almost pureed before adding everything else. Let sit in the fridge overnight before serving (not required, but better, to let the flavors mix together.) Hope you find this recipe useful and delicious!

Thanks for the recipies, I will definitly try them, Bandit yours looks very good, it is very hot or spicy. ( I love the hot spicy ones but my body doesn't so I have to stick with mild)
