Salsa recipes are very practical to follow because of their simplicity. As a Mexican-American salsa has also been an essential part of my life. Usually my mother would be the person who would make our salsa. Whether it is for tradition or simply cooking, salsas will never fail to complete your meal.

The great thing about salsas are the they use the same core ingredients being tomato, onion, and green or red jalapeños. Salsa would not be made as a way to teach yourself about cooking and to bring creativity. Finding things that you can prepare yourself can give you a sense of self-trust and self-reliance. It’s always a great feeling to be self-taught even if it is something as small as cooking.
