Move everything from the baking sheet to a food processor fitted with the S-shaped blade. Don’t forget all of the remaining oil and juice from the pan! A lot of the flavor is in this liquid and it needs to be blended into the salsa. Pour in the remaining ½ Tablespoon olive oil. Pulse until you reach the texture you prefer. Taste, and add additional salt to taste preference. Pulse to combine.

This is the best restaurant-style salsa recipe—at least, by our family’s estimation! It’s pretty straightforward to make, and you can’t help but dunk chip after chip after chip!

The Best Restaurant-Style Salsa

tomatoes ((any medium to large ripe tomato))

oil ((any neutral oil

jalapeño peppers

serrano peppers

Spanish onion ((or 1 small yellow onion))

cilantro ((roughly chopped))

white vinegar

salt

liquid mesquite smoke

Heat a grill over medium-high heat.

In a large bowl, toss the tomatoes in a drizzle of any high smoke point oil. Grab your peppers and onion, and walk them out to the grill. (You can also use an indoor grill pan or a cast iron skillet for this step. I’ve also had good results just charring the onion and jalapeno straight over a gas burner.)

Toss the oiled tomatoes, peppers and onion onto the grill. The goal is for the skin of the peppers and the edges of the onion to get some char, for the tomato skin to get blistered enough that you can peel it off, and for the raw edge to get taken off of most of the tomato. Don’t let it get overcooked and mushy, though.

Remove the tomato, peppers, and onion from the grill. Put the tomatoes back in the same bowl you used to toss them in. Cover the bowl with a plate to let the tomatoes steam. This will help remove the skin. Use the blade of a knife to scrape the skins off of the peppers, and remove seeds as desired (we do not remove them).

Transfer the peppers to the bowl of a food processor along with the onion, garlic, and cilantro. Pulse a few times until coarsely chopped.

Using your fingers, peel the tomatoes. The skin should come off easily. If you can&#39;t get every last bit of skin, don’t worry. Add the tomatoes to the food processor, along with the white vinegar, salt, and liquid smoke. Pulse until you reach your desired consistency (from chunky to runny).

Pour the salsa into a resealable container and transfer to the refrigerator. The salsa is best served chilled, so let it sit for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator, or ideally overnight, before serving.

This Salsa Recipe makes the best salsa in just minutes! It&#039;s fresh and flavorful, and much better than store-bought. Serve it with tortilla chips or spoon over enchiladas, taco salad and more.

Salsa Recipe

An easy salsa made right at home in the blender! Refreshing, flavorful, and tastes similar to the ones you find at a Mexican restaurant.

Restaurant-Style Blender Salsa

yellow onion

cilantro*

lime juice (about 1 lime)

Dice onion and mince garlic. (Or simply place in food processor and pulse a few times.)

Place all ingredients in a large food processor or good blender. (I use my 9 cup food processor.) Blend for about 10 seconds to combine. Blend longer to achieve a smoother consistency, or shorter for chunkier salsa.

Taste and adjust flavors or add more salt if desired. Can serve right away, but tastes best after it chills for a couple hours or overnight (which also mellows the raw onion &amp; garlic). Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
