Recipe: Cilantro-Lime Salsa
By David Harbilas

It’s not really a sauce, though it can act as one, and it requires no cooking, though there are some recipes that call for slow-cooking and canning.

It goes well with fish, grilled chicken, or tortilla chips. As I’ve said in previous posts, ripe tomatoes make all the difference, though salsas are sometimes delicious with lesser-quality fruit if they sit in a mixture of acid and seasonings. If you don’t like cilantro, other tender herbs like tarragon, basil, or chives can be used.
