This homemade salsa recipe is absolutely irresistible! It's loaded with delicious, vibrant flavor and it comes together in less than&nbsp;5 minutes.&nbsp;

Best Damn Salsa Ever!

jalapeño peppers* ((leave the seeds

onion, chopped

garlic

cilantro

tomatoes of varying sizes, chopped

cumin

sea salt +

lemon juice

Add all ingredients to the bowl of a food processor. I like to add in the jalapeños, onion and garlic first and then the cilantro and tomatoes, so the tomatoes do not get too liquid-y. Pulse about 10 or so times and until all ingredients are combined and diced, but be sure to stop before the salsa becomes too watery. However, you can pulse longer if you do like your salsa with more liquid.

Taste the salsa and add more ingredients as desired. I would advise stirring in the extra ingredients, not pulsing in the food processor. The salsa will become too watery, quickly.

Transfer to a bowl and enjoy!

I prefer to refrigerate salsa for 1 day prior to serving to allow the flavors to intensify. Salsa will keep for about 1 week in an airtight container or jar in the fridge; however, it&#39;s never lasted that long in this household.

The best damn salsa ever is bright, fresh and absolutely irresistible- loaded with delicious, vibrant flavor and comes together in less than 5 minutes.

Homemade Salsa

The heat of this salsa is entirely dependent on the kind of chiles you use. Mulato chiles yield a brick red, earthy salsa, while Espelette salsa is the color of fresh cherries, hot yet fruity. Yahualica chiles de arbol yield a bright orange salsa that is fiercely spicy. Use milder salsas as a sauce for enchiladas and sprinkle hotter ones on finished dishes as a hot sauce. Try a mix of chiles to get rich flavors (Ancho, Mulato, Espelette, Red Serrano) with a touch of heat (Cascabel &amp;amp; Yahualica). 

Dried Chile Salsa Recipe

(30 grams) whole dried chiles, any variety

(10 grams) garlic

(90 grams) yellow onion, peeled

water

lime juice

avocado oil

salt

Using kitchen shears, snip stems from dried chiles and empty of any loose seeds. Don’t worry about removing every single seed, but removing some will reduce the chance of bitterness in your finished salsa. Snip chilies in half.

In a dry skillet over medium-high heat, toast chile halves for a few moments per side, just until fragrant. Do not burn.

In a small saucepan, combine onion, chiles, garlic and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat, cover and let steep for 10 minutes.

Using tongs, fish chiles and onion out of saucepan and place them into the jar of a blender or immersion blender. Do the same for cloves of garlic, pausing to peel them out of their papery skins. Reserve 1/2 cup of cooking water.

Add half of the reserved cooking water to blender and puree. Add lime juice, oil, and salt and blend to combine, thinning with more cooking water as needed. Add more salt and lime juice if necessary.

Store salsa in the refrigerator and eat within a week.

Easy Homemade Salsa 

carrots,

jalapeños, de-seeded*

green onions

tsp cumin

cayenne pepper (optional)

½ lemon

lime

Wash all of the produce and roughly chop it into evenly sized pieces about 2-3” long.

Add half of the tomatoes to a large food processor and process until completely broken down, reminiscent of a sauce. 

Add the green onion, cilantro, and garlic to the food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Use a spatula to scrape down the sides of the processor, if necessary. Add the carrots and jalapeños and repeat the same process, then add the spices, salt, lemon juice, and lime juice. Pulse briefly to incorporate, and adjust seasonings to taste

Finally, add the remaining tomatoes and pulse a few times, until the tomatoes reach your desired consistency.

Serve as desired and enjoy! This salsa is best enjoyed fresh, but leftovers will keep in the fridge for up to 5 days.

This is sooo delicious! We've made it twice this past week and throw it over everything, lol!

Sooo good! Literally the best salsa I think I've ever had. And a really impressive thing to make for friends! :)

Awesome! I didn’t have green onion so I used yellow onion. Really fresh and delicious tasting. :)

D-lish!!! This was super yummy and so easy to make. I followed the recipe except I shredded the carrots and added them to the blender with the 1st 1/2 of the tomatoes. I will be making this recipe again and again and again...Thank you!
