Top Tips

Expert Tips That I Recommend

  • I always measure the lemon juice correctly, as the proportion of lemon to that of the tomatoes should be 4:1 to hit the right note of citrusy flavor in the salsa.
  • I usually prefer indulging in the prepared salsa after an hour or so, as giving it some rest allows the flavors to meld.
  • You can also consider adding smoked paprika or chipotle powder to your salsa to create a more complex flavor profile.
  • I usually don’t like blending my salsa too much, as I enjoy a crunchy texture. Therefore, at times, I simply chop the tomatoes and mix the ingredients.
  • I add cilantro, thyme, rosemary, basil, and parsley to my salsa to add a fresh taste.
