Categories     Appetizer     Condiments     Pantry

Time 8m

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cups cherry tomatoes (I used little Juliet tomatoes (small Roma tomatoes) and regular cherry tomatoes)
½ white or yellow onion
1 - 2 cloves fresh garlic
1 jalapeño (Seeded and membrane removed)
½ cup cilantro (More if desired. You can use a mix of leaves and stems.)
½ teaspoon kosher salt (Add more to taste if desired.)
1 lime, juiced

Steps:

  • First, peel the onion and cut it in half. Then, add the onion and garlic cloves to the bowl of a food processor.
  • Chop the onion and garlic, then roughly chop one jalapeño and add it to the food processor. (Exclude the membrane and seeds to reduce the heat.)
  • Chop the jalapeño with the onions/garlic.
  • Next, add tomatoes then cilantro to the food processor.
  • Chop the tomatoes and cilantro to your desired consistency.
  • This next step is optional, but I like to do it - pour the salsa into a fine metal strainer over a bowl to get rid of any excess moisture. (The tomatoes and onions release a lot of liquid when you chop them up.) You want to do this BEFORE adding the salt and lime juice because you will strain out the salt and lime otherwise.
  • Return the strained salsa to a bowl (or the food processor), then add salt and the juice of a lime.
  • Mix well, then taste. Adjust with more salt, lime, and cilantro if needed. Serve with tortilla chips.

GROUND CHERRY SALSA



Ground Cherry Salsa image

I love salsa with a hint of natural sweetness and ground cherries are a perfect addition. This is a relatively mild salsa; if you like it spicier, don't remove the jalapeno seeds, or increase the amount of jalapeno. I use only organic produce, so I don't peel the cucumber.
