Thank you so much for putting up this recipe Chef Jason Hill! I found this recipe a little over a year ago and I have made it for my family and friends ever since. Everyone that tries this recipe loves it and thinks it is very authentic. You are a great chef and I hope you post more videos on how to make authentic mexican food soon.
Me and my girlfriend made this salsa a couple of years ago when I first found your videos. It is our go to salsa recipe. I like the canned tomatoes myself due to them being canned at their peak of ripeness. The only other ingredient that I add is a little bit of apple cider vinegar. And if I have time I like to grill tomatoes and that adds a nice little smoky flavor. Good stuff.
@Derek2001 Thanks so much! Glad you like the salsa! We cringe at this video since it was one of our first attempts on YouTube, but the recipe itself is a good one. :)
@ChefTips I have noticed you've started adding some bloopers here and there. My advice do a take where you have a boom mic fall into frame like int those cheesy B-movies. And you need to take a trip to a water park; find one that you have to use an innertube and just before going down, say, "Thanks for tubing in." Should be pretty classic
I used two small cans of tomato puree and cut up two roma tomatoes with sea salt. I mixed and poured half into one bowl and then added more jalapenos and about half a cup of the vinegar the jalapenos came in and mixed it down to a really watery salsa which is how i liked it. my girlfriend liked the chunky less hot and I liked my fine hot salsa. thanks for the recipe!
Hey, thanks for this recipe i use it a lot, and everyone loves it, i use fresh tomatoes when i have them but don't really notice too much difference if im being honest.
I noticed when i was following a recipe for guacamole that the ingredients are pretty much the same as for this salsa apart from the avocados, so essentially you could mash the avocados and add this salsa to make guacamole. I've yet to try it myself, but don't see why it wouldn't work! Has anyone tried it?
why would you make FRESH salsa and use canned toms... i thought the whole idea, was all ingredients are fresh raw and no preservatives kinda of salsa ???
I don't want to be rude or mean but, if you want the real Mexican flavor, you need to use only fresh ingredients, otherwise is going to taste like canned salsa, so I agree with MahoganyMarmalade. But I really appreciate that people like you take the time to make these videos. Also if you grow your own tomatoes and chiles in the backyard it would have a wonderful flavor mmmm!!
So here is the correct recipe for salsa. 3 large Mexican tomatoes, 3 Mexican Jalapenos, 3 Cloves of wild garlic, 1 Tbs of cleaned rock salt, Juice of 1 lime + the zest of the lime, 1/2 cup of Cilantro, 1/2 of a Large Yellow Onion and 1/2 Tsp crushed red pepper. Mince the garlic and cilantro, dice the tomatoes, onion, and jalapenos. Mix all ingredients in large bowl and place in refrigerator to allow the salt to sweat the juices out of the other ingredients. Serve Chilled.
@ChefTips The greengrocer was on vacation but I made the recipe with cilantro herbs. I tasted well but I've decided to make it another time with cilantro leaves. I'm from the Netherlands by the way.
@ChefTips Yes I used them dried. Yesterday I made the recipe with cilantro leaves for guests and I served it with nachos. The guests were loving it. Thanks for the recipe! I work in a brasserie and there they made the salsa with parsley that tasted well too.
Everything is perfect, but how can you guys eat cilantro? To me it's flavor is so annoying and it does not blend with other flavors, you can feel it so clearly everywhere... too clearly actually.
@ChefTips -- If I may reply to both posts, it IS an acquired taste for many, but then to say that "you either love it or hate it" is a contradiction (IMO). Much like coffee, beer and cigarettes, ACQUIRED TASTES, I'll never forget the first time I tried it, I was thinking "how could they ruin salsa in such a way", I had to ask the waitress to take it away. All these years later I have it growing in my garden along with the other ingredients needed for my fire roasted salsa. Thanks for the vid!!
@ChefTips Chef I agree that is it an acquired taste. When I first tasted it I thought it tasted like soap, but now I really like it. Quick question, is your salse thin or is it chunky? Personally I do not like thin salsas as thin to me is like a sauce. I like it chunky. Thanks in advance for your response.
@Zazmanaz I used to hate cilantro but, now I love it. I acquired a taste for it by removing the leaves from the stem. Finely chop the leaves and sprinkle in home made soups. It won't take long before you are doing a coarse chop on the stems and leaves and adding handfuls to everything you eat.
i have eaten from the hands of a woman that pounds her own corn tortillas, fresh. Forgive my knowledge english, but I like Jimmibear13, he say fresh Tomatoe... this is good also. Sometime, you know, the air around you determine your love of food
Just wanted to tell you I made this salsa for my son's birthday party and everyone loved it! I added to serrano peppers like you suggested and I got alot of recipe requests.
Mm, the recipe looks easy and amazing. Maybe you should show the finished product though so there will be a clearer view on what the end product should look like.
Look, my mom's best friend from Mexico shared this recipe with us years ago. I know there are several salsa recipes out there that call for fresh ingredients and are very good. This recipe is really good too. I wouldn't bother making this video if the recipe stunk....
@MahoganyMarmalade I use fresh roma tomatoes, fresh green chillis, salt, garlic, cilantro, the juice of a lime and a tiny splash of white vinegar. I chop everything by hand and mix with a spoon. I like seeing chunks of the ingredients. The food processor tends to over do it.
@MahoganyMarmalade That's what my dad does. He grows the cilantro himself, grows the jalapenos as well, gets the tomatoes from neighbors and family, he gets the onions and garlic from the store though. I'm not sure if he uses a lime either. He also uses some type of sauce that gives it some kick. It's the most amazing salsa ever.
@MahoganyMarmalade Agreed. I got lazy for some reason the other day and got a package of chocolate chip cookie mix (the name-brand kind where you just add the stick of butter and 1 egg) and it was DISGUSTING. Texture was way off and the chocolate chips were stale even after the cookies were baked. And although making cookies from scratch cost twice the price, I wont ever stray from making them w/ my go-to recipe ever AGAIN.
I just made this tonight and man its pretty damn good and cheap to make with the canned tomatoes. I made a different kind last night with real tomatoes and its not near as good as yours. Thanks for sharing!!
The secret ingredient in great restaurant style salsa is tomato juice. Otherwise the salsa may be too thick. Do all these things but add some tomato juice for the right consistency
Sorry. No, I blew it and didn't show that. It was one of my first videos. You can blend a little for chunky style or puree' it longer for less chunks.
I would do this recipe with fresh tomatoes onion and fresh jalepeno... but I would roast them first and remove the skin on the tomatoes... might also add a clove or two of roasted garlic as well... fresh ingredients really make the difference
I make this recipe all the time. I always add at least a teaspoon of sugar and sometimes a little more after I taste. I sometimes add a teaspoon of black pepper and cumin.
This is the best recipe ive come across ever, I have only one question. In your opinion would sugar and/or vinegar added to this recipe, add a little more depth? I love this recipe but I feel it is missing something other than spicy'ness thanks for the feedback.
i made chips and salsa for my friends when watching the game i used ur recipe and i came out aboslutly delicious. WE LOVED IT thank you so much for the video and recipe
@ladygaga2010monster Absolutely. Just chop them into small dice and toss with all of the ingredients diced by hand. I wouldn't blend it using fresh tomatoes. It would get too watery.
I like when american chefs advertise mexican food more the mexican chefs. like rick bayless. I need to try this with jalapenos, but in my opinion it needs to have other chiles. Also I think you should try to say or do more of a home made mexican food, because I never being in a restaurant that has a good one. In my opinion. Keep up the hard work.
WOW i am 11 and i make the best salsa in my family my family thinks i am the best salsa maker for them but i doubt it maybe they just want to make me feel good. I did like my salsa i used love on mines
This is good stuff. Just followed this recipe and added 3 serranos for an extra kick. It's the closest thing I've found so far to restaurant salsa, and extremely easy to make.
Soooooo, whats the difference in making chunky and non-chunky salsa? Is the difference just in using a blender and not using one? And also, was that non-chunky salsa you made?I.....need....to.....know!!! x_O
Hi there. A red salsa, such as this recipe, is more of a sauce or puree. Pico de Gallo is the chunky mix that is usually hand chopped. Same ingredients, different texture. Hope this helps!
cant wait to try this. ive been looking for a good salsa recipe like the salsa i get at my favorite mexican eateries and so far all ive found are recipes that have ingredients that i cant get in australia. i can get all of these here so next time i go to the store im getting me a giant can of tomatos and gonna make me up a batch of it.
I created another version of salsa with cranberry an strawberries mixed with chunks of tomato cucumber and bell peppers it was great too :) the parsley makes a huge difference
Mexican Salsa Is Done By Fresh Tomatoes And Fresh Serano chile And we Dont Squeeze Lime Try roasting The Tomatoes N Cutting A fresh Green Serano Chile And Chopping The Cilantro to fine Piece's And blend The Tomatoes with Chile Then Add The Cilantro And The Rest . will Come Out Perfect
Does any canned tomato work? Here I just find Italian skinless canned tomato, Italian tomato here is that one that is kinda longer and its pretty much like an egg shape...
Thank you so much for putting up this recipe Chef Jason Hill! I found this recipe a little over a year ago and I have made it for my family and friends ever since.

also I like how it's supposed to be mexican salsa yet the music is Salsa music which is not even remotely Mexican..
he he..
good recipe though. that's what counts.

Soooooo, whats the difference in making chunky and non-chunky salsa? Is the difference just in using a blender and not using one? And also, was that non-chunky salsa you made?I.....need....to.....know!!! x_O

Hi there. A red salsa, such as this recipe, is more of a sauce or puree. Pico de Gallo is the chunky mix that is usually hand chopped. Same ingredients, different texture. Hope this helps!

fresh peppers and tomatoes make it a million times better in my opinion.

I'd like to make one, for a movie night. can i use fresh peeled tomatoes instead?
I guess fresh ones will make it more "watery"... no seeds then too?

I use it, but you can use regular salt as well.

Mexican Salsa Is Done By Fresh Tomatoes And Fresh Serano chile And we Dont Squeeze Lime Try roasting The Tomatoes N Cutting A fresh Green Serano Chile And Chopping The Cilantro to fine Piece's And blend The Tomatoes with Chile Then Add The Cilantro And The Rest . will Come Out Perfect

Does any canned tomato work? Here I just find Italian skinless canned tomato, Italian tomato here is that one that is kinda longer and its pretty much like an egg shape...
brenck 2 years ago
You should be fine using the canned roma or plum tomatoes.

Thanks for the post. I have always wanted to make a salsa like that of the restuarants. Do you have a post of one that is much hotter.
