For a smoother salsa, pulse a portion of the ingredients in a food processor before combining with the rest. If you prefer a milder salsa, remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapenos before mincing. Feel free to experiment with other ingredients, such as diced mango, avocado, or roasted corn, to customize the salsa to your liking. This salsa is best enjoyed within 2-3 days of preparation for optimal freshness and flavor.

Dec 11, 2024I was worried it would be too spicy with two jalapenos but it was perfect! I did remove the seeds though.
