Salsa has been a staple for quite sometime. Bill started it. Gave the recipe to us. I played with it, never changed the ingredients just modified the order of items in the food processor. Phil requested an alteration to the chunkiness - that is more chunky. The other night we made chicken enchiladas and the salsa for a topping.
I do enjoy the chuncky version better and I think it's more flavorful! Here the basic ingredients for those who want to give it a try:
1/2 tsp cumin 2 clove crushed garlic 1 can of diced tomatoes jalapenos to taste (I like 2 or 3, Sue likes 1 if it's seeded and not hot) 1/2 of a medium onion 1/2 of a lime 1/2 cup cilantro salt to taste
A huge thanks to Julie Powell and, ultimately, Julia Child for inspiring adventurous cooking - create and tweak our own recipes - learn from Julia Child.
Other sources of inspiration: Alton Brown of Good Eats, and Cook's Illustrated magazine.
