🔥 Homemade Salsa Recipe (Restaurant-Style) 😋

Ingredients:

• 1/4 medium white onion, peeled

• 2 tablespoons diced jalapeños (adjust for heat)

🥣 Directions:

1. Prep the Veggies

   • If you like a smokier flavor, lightly char the onion, garlic, and jalapeño in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2–3 minutes until they develop some color.

2. Blend It Up

   • Add all the ingredients to a food processor or blender:

     • Onion

     • Jalapeños

     • Garlic

     • Fire-roasted tomatoes

     • Lime juice

     • Salt

     • Cilantro

3. Pulse or Blend

   • Pulse 5–10 times for a chunkier salsa, or blend until smooth for that restaurant-style consistency.

4. Taste & Adjust

   • Add more lime juice, salt, or jalapeño depending on your flavor and spice preference.

5. Chill (Optional but Recommended)

   • Refrigerate for 30 minutes to let flavors meld together beautifully.

✅ Tips:

• Too Spicy? Add more tomatoes or a pinch of sugar to mellow it out.

• Too Mellow? Add a dash of vinegar or hot sauce for kick.

• No Fire-Roasted Tomatoes? Use regular canned tomatoes + 1/2 tsp smoked paprika.
