Your Favorite Salsa

There is a restaurant called Los Ramirez in Clear Lake (in the old Oriental Gourmet building) that has very good red sauce. Personally, I also order their spicy sauce and mix a bit into the red sauce for heat.

 

absolutely!!! this is my favorite store-bought brand.

love the salsa at La Hacienda on Memorial, just west of Dairy Ashford

 

My favorite store bought salsa is Mrs. Renfro's - Hot. This stuff tastes fantastic with just the right amount of kick! The only store I've been able to find that has the Hot flavor is H.E.B. . They also make a green salsa that is very good and you can find that at just about any grocery store.

Hell on the Red is pretty good, but it's a bit too thin for me. I go to dip some and it just runs right off the chip.

 

I prefer fresh salsa anyway; either homemade or from the vegetable section of the store. Central Market has some great ones, expensive as they may be, for anyone who lives in a town with one. Many other stores have some sort of packaged fresh salsa that's much better than the stuff in bottles.

 

Whole Foods Market Fire Roasted Salsa then add some crushed pineapple to it!!

Yummy!

 

You know it must be impossible for a Spanish person to order
salsa and not get seltzer.

"I wanted salsa, not seltzer!!!"

 

Do you use your 2 for 1 coupon from Kroger?

 

How many tomatos?
How much onion?
jalapenos to taste? Aprox how many for med-hot?
How much cilantro?

Thanks.

 

You know, now that I think about it, that recipe is just pico de gallo thrown in a blender with a couple of spices thrown in. So, can you buy the fresh pico de gallo from the grocery store, do this, and get decent salsa?

 

Arriba is decent I suppose.

But it's still no match for Spanish Flowers, damnit.
Chepoltepec (or however you spell it) also has pretty good salsa.
