What’s not to like about a fresh salsa? Well, the watery juices that drip down your arms and make your chips soggy. This recipe fixes those problems while preserving the tasty and nutritious juices. There are endless variations on this basic recipe – try adding some mango. Peach? Why not? Apples? Go for it. Try kiwis or gooseberries, too. I like my salsa fiery and added 2 habaneros.
