removing the seeds from the tomato reduces bitterness. removing them from the jalapeno reduces the heat. notice there's no garlic in this recipe to 'cool' it down and sweeten it up.
I have to say it again - there is absolutely no reason to peel/seed a tomato. It really annoys me when I see a chef take out the most flavourful part of the tomato for no reason at all. Do what you want, but your salsa will taste better with the seeds/skin in.
@hunthicks I think it's more that the seed part is just a little too liquid for this sort of salsa. I'm not disagreeing with you, but sometimes the seed portion of the tomato can mess with the texture that you're trying to achieve.
411 - CILANTRO is the LEAF of the CORIANDER plant, and they cannot be interchanged. CORIANDER is the FRUIT. The Mexicans don't use jalepeno but serano chilies, which are sooo much hotter.
The revolution is possible, but we need to start now so that Ron Paul will become president on Jan 20 2013. This video instructs revolutionaries on what to do:

MOVEMENT OF THE PEOPLE!
The NWO may have stopped Ron Paul from becomming president, but citizens have revolted against thier government and put a true patriot in power in other countries, so it is possible in the united states.
Remember before genitic engineering when tomatoes were red and great tasting on the inside? But now it has a longer shelf life, great, now it can sit there longer before i don't eat it!!
it IS easy, how can it be difficult, it's just chopping stuff. you don't even need to blanch those tomatoes you can just cut out the seed flesh if you want.
i would use parsley cause i hate cilantro

Seeding the tomatoes is pointless, and in my opinion takes away from the flavor.

this "salsa" here in mexico we call it " pico de gallo" and it's delicious!!! ^-^

Salsa tastes better when you roast the veggies,including the garlic, over a grill or a comal (the thingie we use for make tortillas).
And don't seed them! The essential oil of chiles and tomatoes are lost when you seed them.
juandacharroninja 2 years ago 16
I agree, especially with the tomatoes! If you eat a fresh, ripe tomato the most flavorful part is the seeds and the liquid surrounding them.

Could you share your best salsa recipe?
I would add cumin,sugar,lemon,habenero or serano,green chili,and some finely chopped green pepper to this recipe.
This is a basic recipe as I'm sure the chef intended.
But I would really love to get an authentic mexican salsa recipe if you have one.

Just want to say, Cilantro is called Coriander if you come from Europe etc.
