Hubby made a damn good salsa that had pineapple in it.

This. Use tomatillos for salsa it tastes better and you can use it for tacos and all beaner foods

>Fresh cilantro is retardedly expensive where I am unfortunately :(
Really .. .where are you user?

I, for one, am not a fan of salsa with fruit in it. And if you tell me tomatoes are a fruit, I swear....

the balance of the acidy tomatoes and the fresh sour lemon juice. also the consistency of the salsa, I like my salsa rough and square rather than a pile of mush

you should try adding some lemon juice or lime for freshness

Tits or gtfo roastie

Fuck off FBI.

Cilantro is easy to grow yourself. Or live in Texas where It's .33$ a bunch

>Lemon juice
>not lime juice

what do tomatillos even taste like?

100% correct answer
toss in some roasted peppers and you are a winner

Sorry, user, tomato is a fruit.

I like Frontera.

Lots and lots of FUCKING SUGAR, apparently.
If it doesn't taste like candy it's not salsa, imho.

the key is to have a mexican make it. Just go to home depot, walmart or lowes parking lots, pick one or two up and show them the chips and ingredients and they will understand. Or just say "hacer la salsa" over and over with cutting motions

I've been making salsa recently too

>3/4 of 2lb of tomatoes
>1/2 large red onion
>3/4-1 bunch fresh cilantro
>2 jalapeno peppers
>juice of 2 limes
>salt
>blend until smooth

>chop rest of onion and dice remaining tomatoes
>add, mix and chill overnight

I've had people ask to buy this salsa

Cilantro

>only mexicans can make good mexican food

when will people stop believing this dumb shit. protip: its fucking lard. cheap mexican food is good because everything is soaked in greasy fat all the time, especially tamales. its easy to make and requires only a few pieces of kitchen equipment.

plus mexicans char the fuck out of their skirt/flank steak and call it carne asada. its overcooked at almost every cheap mexican joint ive been to. still good, of course, but would be better if it wasnt tougher than my shoes.

Lol dude. So random. I smoke weed too.

Unripe tomatoes.

Raw tomatillo. Fresh cilantro.
avocado, onion, jalapeno, few tablespoons of water, salt and white pepper to taste...blend....super smooth salsa.

tart & crisp. theyre commonly dry roasted in a frying pan to bring out a little smokey flavor. great replacement in Mediterranean sauces that call for regular tomatoes...unripe green tomatoes taste completely different since tomatillos arent actually toamtoes..same senpai but way different growing and ripeness,

ground up fetuses

Dude why mayo
