It's the yin to the lime's yang. <br /><br />DO NOT use key limes. Wrong flavor. Plus, they are a pain in the ass to squeeze. Standard limes are perfect.Supercordshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14516452165667442506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9133017.post-86293066398376148912009-06-18T00:18:04.440-06:002009-06-18T00:18:04.440-06:00I've never liked any homemade salsa I've e...I've never liked any homemade salsa I've ever had, probably because it always has way too much cilantro in it. But, I've noticed that whenever I'm at some get-together where someone's made homemade salsa, people just go nuts about it, like it's the most impressive thing in the world to make salsa.<br /><br />So, I decided to make up some salsa last week to see if it was really that hard. I followed your directions pretty closely, except I eliminated the cilantro, because I can't stand the stuff. It's possible the salsa would taste fine or perhaps even better with a moderate amount of cilantro, but I'm not taking the chance.<br /><br />The first batch was pretty good, but needed a little more salt. So, the second batch I over compensated and put way too much salt in it. It was so bad that the next day I had to go buy some more ingredients to make up a third batch without any salt just to even it out. Once that was done, though, I had about 4 quarts of seriously good salsa on my hands.<br /><br />I served a little at my son's birthday party and got several compliments (even though some guests needled me by suggesting it could use a little more cilantro). I ate virtually all of the rest of it myself. 3 1/2 quarts of salsa in 7 days.<br /><br />One question for next time: Are you using key limes or the full size ones? I used the big ones, but though it was perhaps just a tad too "limey". Still didn't stop me from eating it all, though.Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04398538375423363995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9133017.post-37695573823003193262009-05-09T11:29:00.000-06:002009-05-09T11:29:00.000-06:00I'm now really hungry.
