_Flavored Salsa |
|
Print this Recipe
Salsa contains just three ingredients: tomatoes, onions, and peppers. Everything else is flavoring. Cilantro, garlic, lime, corn, chipotle, black beans, white beans, and artichoke all can give salsa a distinctive taste profile or a stylistic panache, but they limit its versatility as a cooking ingredient. Use flavored salsas where appropriate to streamline the number of ingredients in a recipe, but always feel free to substitute an all-purpose salsa amended with a flavorful addition.
To make a flavored salsa, add the following to 1 cup salsa:
* For chipotle salsa, add 1 teaspoon chipotle hot sauce, or 1/2 teaspoon ground chipotle, or 1/4 chipotle pepper en adobo, finely chopped.
* For cilantro salsa, add 1 teaspoon cilantro pesto or 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro.
* For lime salsa, add 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice.
* For corn and black bean (Southwest) salsa, add 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin and 2 tablespoons each rinsed canned black beans and drained canned or frozen corn kernels.
