Best salsa that I can buy at the store?

[jazz_fanatic]

I put sugar in everything, so BAM sugar!

Also,
+avocado
+corn

Don't like jalapenos

Basically all you need is onions, tomatoes, jalapenos, lime juice, cilantro, and garlic salt.

Why not use fresh garlic instead of garlic salt?

Tomatoes, onions, fresh garlic, cilantro, freshly squeezed lime juice, jalapenos/habaneros & my secret ingredient. No sugar, no artificial ingredients, no preservatives (other than the lime juice). The preparation is what makes mine very different.

 

[Dr. Jones]

I agree you need a little sugar. Careful not too much, obviously, but a little pulls the flavors together.

Im not a big fan of any salsa that comes in a jar. It generally isnt that great. I guess Pace is ok, but once you get hooked on fresh salsa , it just isnt the same. Some grocery stores will make their own and its pretty good. Smith's use to make the bomb fresh salsa but quit making it. At least the stores I have been to did. The last place I had really good fresh salsa from a store was a place up in Park City. I think its called Fresh Market just off of Park Ave and Homestake dr.

Not a big garlic fan in salsa, too strong.

No sugar .. no garlic??

Not sure what you're making.

 

[Dr. Jones]

Thank you #teamsugar

That's got a nice ring to it.

Sugar, no way, nasty, but garlic is a must ..... the secret ....... a dash of Orange Juice .....

Mmmmmm spicy mayo.

I drink it.

So do I. It's excellent hangover prevention, but Louisiana hot sauce is better & tastier.

Life is better when you just admit you are 1/2 a person and can't do certain things well.

Aren't there a few prominent midget chefs?

The original use was to tame hot chili down a bit. I put that and peanut butter in mine when it's too hot. Both sound odd but you can't taste it at all.

Another weird ingredient is carrots. A guy in SLC puts them in his and it's the best salsa I've found.

 

[Dr. Jones]

I get that, but I don't like carrots in my salsa.

I DO like to dip carrots in cider though.

 

[colton]

That's better. I'm not in SLC so I can't go there, but there are a few salsas that I like at some restaurants around here so I maybe I should call them and see if they'll sell me a few gallons worth or something.

Which restaurants have salsa you like? I think you're in Utah county, right, which is where I am also. The restaurant salsas I've tried around here have generally speaking been disappointing to me.

That's what I was going to suggest. Refrigerated salsa from a grocery store. I like Harmons' refrigerated salsa.

Local Utah county salsas ???? La Costa in Pleasant Grove isn't bad. Mi Ranchito is tolerable. La Puente in AF is like unbelievable bad yet really addicting, its basically hot tomato paste. Its gross but I cant stop eating it.

I agree on La Puente Salsa.

It is the worst, but I love it. Probly cuz when I'm eating it my taste buds are already anticipating the smothered burrito awesomeness to come.

I normally don't like the refrigerated salsa, but agree on Harmon's being quite good.

I was kind of shooting for something a little better than "isn't bad", "tolerable", and "unbelievable bad". ;-)

He did have 'addicting.'

You are out of luck then.
