BLENDED SALSA (TYPICAL RESTAURANT STYLE)



Blended Salsa (Typical Restaurant Style) image

There's just something about the chips and salsa that are put down in front of me when I visit my neighborhood Mexican joint. It's a typical Tex-Mex place. This is the kind of salsa that's simple and can't be replicated by a store bought, jarred version. Fresh tomatoes are NOT the way to go to get the flavor I'm looking for. Don't get me wrong, fresh pico de gallo is just as easy and delicious. Canned tomatoes have the correct flavor and consistency.

Time 5m

Yield 1-20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans tomatoes, drained (leave some liquid for thinner salsa)
1/2 onion, finely diced (whatever kind of onion you like)
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 jalapeno, seeded and cut into pieces
1/4 cup cilantro

Steps:

  • Place all of the ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend on low 10-30 seconds depending on the desired consistency. While it tastes great right away, you get the best flavor if you let it sit for a few hours or overnight.

Categories     condiment

Time 1h15m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Two 10-ounce cans diced tomatoes and green chiles, such as Rotel
One 28-ounce can whole tomatoes with juice
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves (or more to taste!)
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 clove garlic, minced
1 whole jalapeno, quartered and sliced thin, with seeds and membrane
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1/2 whole lime, juiced

Steps:

  • Combine the diced tomatoes, whole tomatoes, cilantro, onions, garlic, jalapeno, cumin, salt, sugar and lime juice in a blender or food processor. (This is a very large batch. I recommend using a 12-cup food processor, or you can process the ingredients in batches and then mix everything together in a large mixing bowl.)
  • Pulse until you get the salsa to the consistency you'd like. I do about 10 to 15 pulses. Test seasonings with a tortilla chip and adjust as needed.
  • Refrigerate the salsa for at least an hour before serving.
