My family recently discovered the red salsa at Kitos in Corte Madera, which is approximately 2ish hours away for us. Since discovering it a few months ago, we’ve made the drive there every other week or so to pick up the salsa (which is good for 2 weeks). We buy two bottles at a time. As summer is ending, we are getting busier again and the trip isn’t as doable on such a time frame. Anybody have a salsa recipe dupe or similar to help tide us in between salsa runs?

Flavor profile: It’s a very mild salsa in terms of spice level. The flavor is deep and incredibly savory. I want to say it almost reminds me of mushrooms in terms of how much umami it has (I know it sounds weird but it also doesn’t taste like mushrooms. It just had that umami quality to it). When I asked the cashier about it, she mentioned there are 20+ ingredients that go into the salsa. Color-wise, it’s a deeper red with a slight orange hue and has little black flecks in it.

I included a picture of the bottle and what it looks like atop egg whites. I honestly loathe eating egg whites and this is the only way I can get them down 😅 not sure how healthy the salsa is but…balance? 🤷🏻‍♀️🤭
