    great blend of flavors

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I usually make my own salsa. I decided to use some of Alton's techniques in my recipe and it turned out great. The mixture of... flavors was amazing - roasting one of the jalape?os made a big difference. Read more

    good recipe but if you wear contacts...

    Rated: 4 stars out of 5
    remember to remove them before starting... otherwise you'll have to wait a while (even with repeated washing) to get the... sting out of your hands after all that chopping! Read more

    Better than your best run of the mill Amexican restaurant freebie

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I made this up for my parents one night in conjunction with the 'Super Nachos' recipe.. Rachel Ray I think? Turned out... amazing even when both my parents are northerners with very delicate palates, they had nothing but rave reviews. I'm excited to try it again now that I have tracked down the hard to find ingredients for AB's chile powder... La Chinata smoked sweet paprika and cascabel chile's are crazy hard to find. Definitely cut out the membranes of all peppers used if you're serving to the hot food challenged crowd and snip up the ancho as finely as you can. If they can't see it, it's not as hot.. placebo effect.Read more

    botched

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I botched the recipe (I do that a lot). It's my first time using parsley and celantro so I added about 4 sprigs or so of... each. Maybe I also added to much red onion. And I removed all the tomato seeds. It was nasty. I didn't put them in the processor so a lot of it was all there. The taste was over powering. So I though about it. Maybe I can't use this as a salsa. But there is no reason not to use it for something else (I'm poor, I don't waste food). So I chucked some butter on a frying pan and cooked it up. Then I got some eggs and made an amlet. This didn't improve anyting. But I wasn't going to give up yet. So I chucked in some Worcestershire sauce. The sauce pretty much neutralized all the nastyness. I was left with a really good amlet.Read more

    Jalapeno roaster!?

    Rated: 3 stars out of 5
    DO NOT place an OXO steamer insert onto the stove top, there is some sort of metal with a low melting point in the center... hole and it will bubble out and destroy your steamer the salsa was pretty goodRead more

    I love fresh Salsa and this is the best recipe I have ever tried! Reminds me of the, now defunct, mexican restaurant chain... Chi Chi's fresh salsa.Read more
