As the title says… always a great day when I can use basically everything from my garden making salsa.
The only things I had to get from the store were cilantro and the limes. I’ve tried to grow cilantro here (Oklahoma) and it does ok until about early June when the heat and humidity make it just bolt like crazy.
But back to the salsa – it was amazing. Gonna do a smoked batch once my next batch of tomatoes are ready.

This is persistence at its finest. Looks great.
Recipe:
3 garden tomatoes
1 white onion
3 cloves garlic
2 Serranos
Juice of one lime
Small bunch of cilantro
Roast tomatoes, garlic, onion and jalapenos under broiler
Let cool to room temp.
Grind up garlic and peppers into a paste with some kosher salt in a molecajete.
Slowly mash in tomatoes one at a time.
Finely dice onion and cilantro and mix in.
Adjust for salt and acidity (use lime juice or vinegar).
Man how do you manage the cilantro? Every year ive tried to grow it, it gets SWARMED by aphids, neem oil be damned. Any recommendations?
