In the middle of winter, I crave fresh tasting salsa. I have tried canning "already made salsa" and found it to be lacking in flavor and it really tasted no better then a quality jar of salsa you would find in the grocery store. The biggest problem is I don't really like the flavor of cooked salsa in general. Store bought "fresh "tomatoes in the winter are however just as gross. What do you do?? I took a quart jar of plain home canned tomato puree from the cellar and to that added lots of fresh cilantro, a medium fresh onion,a green pepper, 3 garlic cloves, lime juice from half of a fresh lime, and salt to taste. Screw the bottom of your blender into the top of the jar....blend until the fresh bits are chopped up nice and small and....Ta-daaaaaaa..... A fresh tasting salsa and another use for those tomatoes you spent all summer saving.
