Tips & Notes

Pro tips

Pulse the blender in short bursts to control texture; over-blending creates a watery consistency as canned tomatoes release liquid.
Drain excess liquid from canned ingredients before blending to prevent watery salsa.
Taste and adjust seasonings after blending—spices blend differently and flavors develop after a few minutes of sitting.
Use fire-roasted tomatoes and chiles for deeper, smoky flavor without additional cooking steps.

Substitutions

Fresh diced tomatoes → canned diced tomatoes (canned provides better texture and shelf stability)
Fresh jalapeños → canned diced jalapeños (already prepared, consistent heat level)
Onion powder → 1/4 tsp garlic powder or salt to taste (adjust ratio as fresh garlic will change texture)
