L gave me a lesson in how to cut fresh cilantro. And I got a lesson in just how hot jalapenos are even without their seeds. (Not my smartest move to pop a bit of chopped jalapeno in my mouth! L looked at me like "DUH"!!)
.
The Mr. loves hot salsa and I like mild, so we made two different batches--his had the jalapeno seeds and mine didn't.
.
That's it. Fresh salsa that will keep in refrigerator for a week or two. I discovered that it is better after it has chilled. Yum, good stuff!
.
The tomatoes are under control again. Whew! Next up: learning how to preserve it so we can have fresh salsa year round!

Look at those dimples- cute! Salsa sounds yummy and you captured it well in the photo, too! Good job, Julia. :)
Just stopping by to express my tomato envy and to request an act of public service. I'm waiting for the Mrs. E's Recommended Reading blog...the time you would save me at the local library....
Mrs. E...Cousin J and her daughter L have a QUICK & EASY canning method for salsa! J says to call her! Love ya, Favorite Cousin R
LOOKS YUMMY, ME AND THE ROOMATE HAVE SOME BASIL ABOUT 5 FEET TALL(WANTS WATERED TWICE A DAY) I THINK ITS ABOUT TIME TO MAKE SOME PESTO!
This post and smelling cilantro while working the checkout during my food coop shift have worked hand-in-hand to inspire salsa making this evening!!!!
I love Salsa and this batch looks delicious! I think I need to go grab some chips now but it's 11:00 at night!!! Your daughter is beautiful and a smart cook too!
Yum, that looks delicious! Now I just need my tomatoes to ripen without something (slugs?) eating them first!
L is so pretty. I like your line that she thinks you might forget who she is!
Looks yummy Mrs. E. Beautiful daughter you have.
Hey, I've figured out that if I use IE, my comments would actuallly take over here.
