Santa Maria Salsa image

This salsa is somewhat different from other recipes, as the tomatoes are drained so that there is not an excess of liquid and celery is added. Try using different chilies as mild Anaheim and poblano chiles, keeping in mind that you will change the heat value of the recipe. The distinct texture of each ingredient is part of this salsa's identity and appeal, so do not use a food processor.
