Jalapeño Salsa

Instructions:

1. Roughly chop the jalapeños, tomatoes, onion, and garlic.
2. Add all chopped vegetables to a blender or food processor.
3. Add cilantro, lime juice, and salt.
4. Pulse until the salsa reaches your preferred texture, whether chunky or smooth.
5. Taste and adjust the seasoning by adding more salt or lime juice as needed.
6. Chill for about 15 minutes to allow the flavors to blend, if time allows.

Variations

• Roast the jalapeños, onions, or tomatoes for a smoky flavor.
• Add an avocado for a creamy jalapeño salsa.
• Swap lime juice for a splash of apple cider vinegar for tangier brightness.
• Add a handful of spinach or parsley to boost color without changing the flavor.

Tips

• Remove seeds and membranes from the jalapeños for a milder salsa.
• If the salsa is too thick, add a tablespoon of water or oil to loosen it.
• Taste as you go—jalapeños vary in heat from batch to batch.
• Store refrigerated for up to 4 days; the flavor intensifies as it rests.
