Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 small jalapeño peppers* ((leave the seeds in for an extra kick))
1/2 onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves
1/4-1/2 cup fresh cilantro
6 tomatoes of varying sizes, chopped
1 1/2 to 2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon sea salt + more to taste
2 tablespoons lemon or lime juice ((about 1/2 lemon, juiced))

Steps:

  • Add all ingredients to the bowl of a food processor. I like to add in the jalapeños, onion and garlic first and then the cilantro and tomatoes, so the tomatoes do not get too liquid-y. Pulse about 10 or so times and until all ingredients are combined and diced, but be sure to stop before the salsa becomes too watery. However, you can pulse longer if you do like your salsa with more liquid.
  • Taste the salsa and add more ingredients as desired. I would advise stirring in the extra ingredients, not pulsing in the food processor. The salsa will become too watery, quickly.
  • Transfer to a bowl and enjoy!
  • I prefer to refrigerate salsa for 1 day prior to serving to allow the flavors to intensify. Salsa will keep for about 1 week in an airtight container or jar in the fridge; however, it's never lasted that long in this household.

KIM'S SALSA

This recipe is a favorite of all my friends. Whenever they come over, they want to leave with a jar. Therefore, when I make it I can 14 GALLONS each time. I figure, if I'm gonna spend all day making it, I might as well only do it once a year! I like to serve this salsa with tortillas or use it in cooking. It's great in scrambled eggs and chili.

JAMES KIM'S SALSA



James Kim's Salsa image

This is a fresh, authentic salsa. When my friend Carol brought me a container of this salsa, I promptly threw away every other salsa recipe I had. Everytime I bring it somewhere it disappears completely. Make it the night before and it keeps for weeks in the frig. The heat is present, but not overwhelming and fades quickly.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 9

food processor
two-28 oz cans whole peeled tomatoes
3/4 bunch cilantro, fresh
2 clove garlic
1/2 large sweet onion
5 serrano chile peppers
2-3 tsp salt - depending on taste
2 tsp vinegar
2 c water

Steps:

  • 1. Bring 2C water to boil in microwave. Place serrano peppers in hot water for 30 seconds. Discard water. Cut away the stems of the peppers and discard.
  • 2. Drain whole peeled tomatoes. Pull Cilantro leaves off their stems and use only the leaves.
  • 3. Place all ingredients in the food processor. Mix together until liquified.
  • 4. Transfer to storage container and refrigerate overnight. The next day it's ready to eat.
  • 5. Heat can be controlled by removing seeds and membranes from peppers. Serranos can vary in heat, so I sometimes add 1 jalepeno pepper for good measure.
