Cool. Should have waited until tomorrow. Fresh salsa is best when it’s fresh
At first, I was thinking no way on the oranges, but now I’m thinking it might be a win. I’ll have to try it!
Nice! I love fruity salsas. I make a delicious mango salsa I like to serve with grilled fish tacos. Honey mango, blow-torched red bell peppers, Serrano or habanero or both, cilantro, sometimes mint, red onion, chipotle, etc.
Yum!
Dried cilantro? All of the flavor is in the volatile oils that are gone when dehydrated.
