Hello, I made some salsa based off my mom’s easy recipe, but I used some ingredients from my garden, one of which being 2 super ripe red jalapeños. The ripened red ones are apparently spicier than green, and now my salsa is just too spicy to eat much more than a few chips of before my eyes are watering and I need to check my breathing lol. The flavor is great but I’m just looking to dampen the spice. Any ideas on how to tame my salsa?
Recipe:
– 2 cans crushed tomatoes
– juice of 5 fresh limes
– 1 bundle fresh cilantro
– 1 red onion
– 2 jalapeños
– tajin, salt, and pepper to taste

If you didn’t, next time try removing the seeds and pith from your peppers. Otherwise you could always substitute the jalapenos for something like a poblano.
Add 1/2 teaspoon of white sugar
