Add your own ingredients to customize the salsa to suit your tastes.
Salsa refers to a spicy sauce that often has a tomato base. Making homemade salsa does not have to be a difficult task. Many different types of salsa recipes are available and they include ingredients such as jalapenos, onions, garlic, cilantro or tomatillos. Chunky salsa contains a small amount of liquid and larger pieces of produce. A non-chunky salsa consists of a more liquid-based salsa where the ingredients are minced or blended.
Instructions
1. Dice one small onion into fine pieces with a knife.
2. Add the diced onions to a food processor. Add the canned whole tomatoes and canned diced tomatoes.
3. Slice the jalapeno in half lengthwise. Cut each jalapeno half in half lengthwise again. Cut the jalapenos into thin slices and leave the seeds intact. Add the jalapenos to the food processor.
4. Add the sugar, salt, cilantro and lime juice to the mixture.
5. Pulse the ingredients around eight to nine times. Add the cumin to the salsa. Pulse the salsa again until it reaches the desired consistency. The more you pulse the salsa, the less chunky it will be.
