Fresh Homemade Salsa
Salsa sauce is necessary for tacos. People always ask me for the recipe whenever I bring it out to potluck parties. It's really delicious, but all you need to do is chop the ingredients and combine everything together. It goes well with sautéed whitefish and meats.
The green tabasco (jalapeno sauce) is about only 1/5 the spiciness of the red variety. The vinegary tartness of the tabasco is very refreshing. You can use either the green or red kind as you'd like. I like to add in lots of the green tabasco and just a few drops of the red. The red chili peppers I used this time were pickled in vinegar, but you can also use fresh or dried chillis as well.

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Chop your tomatoes into cubes. Finely chop your onions, celery stalks, and bell peppers. Soak the chopped onions in a bowl of water.
- 2
Finely chop your green chili peppers. Grate your garlic. Strain the chopped onion and remove any excess moisture with paper towels or similar.
- 3
Combine all the ingredients together. Add Tabasco as desired. The flavors will settle in and become more delicious if you let your salsa sit for 30 minutes or so.

Here's what I used this time. The bottled red and green chili peppers were purchased at an import store. It's better if you use fresh lemon juice, but I just used the store-bought kind since I didn't have any fresh lemons on hand.
- 5
I couldn't find any fresh cilantro, so I used a freeze-dried version. If you don't have any cilantro, you can substitute it with chopped celery leaves.

Some added tips.This makes on average a little over a pound of salsa. No more than 2.When picking your veggies and peppers make sure they have tight skin. An old, wrinkled, or damaged pepper will be hard to peel.You can remove or add peppers to you spice level.Use wet paper towel to help remove pepper skin that is stuck to your fingers.I use vine tomatoes. Or Roma.Most of the time it's "al tanteo" so follow your instincts when it comes to adding or removing something. You end up with more salsa though.

I forgot that I got a kit from a supermarket produce department about 7 years ago. It had everything you need for fresh salsa. It was terrific. This recipe is based on that but I had to adjust for what I could find in the produce section in these unconventional times.
