Tips for the salsa recipe
You are going to love this salsa recipe for Memorial Day, potlucks, parties, or just keeping in the fridge for any time when you need a fresh and delicious snack! Here are a few tips to make the best salsa ever:
- The best salsa is made with fresh tomatoes. Canned tomatoes simply don’t offer the same taste equivalent. Using fresh tomatoes make a world of difference, especially when you use nicely ripened in-season tomatoes
- Don’t puree the salsa, some chunky texture is a good thing here.
- Let the homemade salsa sit for 30 minutes or more. The more it sits, the better and better it gets. Time allows all the flavors and ingredients to mingle together.
- You can use parsley or cilantro instead of basil.
