Salsa Tip

Grub · February 9, 2007

I was making salsa tonight, with everyting from jals. to roasted corn, avocado, cilantro, roasted peppers, fresh green peppers and when it came to tomatoes I went to the box... there were heaps of Mexico Midgets, those currants with a sweet explosion. Wow! I grabbed a whole pile, washed them and chucked them in the mix. I added some of this and some of that, the secret things that we do, but those Mexico Midgets were superb and really made the salsa without having to even bother about cutting tomatoes... way 2 go. And this baby is growing in an 8gal pot and is a beast and incredibly productive. So if you like salsas and want to make it easy on yourself grow a Mexico Midget and use the currants instead of chopping. When you stop to think about i, the name implies plenty

Thanks for hearing me out.
Cheers, Grub.

Well, he is a writer, you know. Still trying to figure out what he meant about 'the secret things we do'. But then again, I probably don't want to know.

Mexico Midget better be good (and not the Early Wonder of small fruited types), or I'm going to hunt Grub and Earl down like the dirty dawgs they are for recommending it so much.

ObPepper/salsa - In addition to some hots, I also like to use a 'seasoning' type in salsas for complexity.

I've also been meaning to read up on chipotle/smoking of peppers for salsas, and haven't gotten around to it yet.

Suze, if you go on the hunt, would you go after Grub first? That'll give me time to get over the mountain. :-) You need to put Craig on your list, he started the MM ball rolling.

Now don't you worry about them MMs going to waste, send them to Grub, he'll be out by then and in a mighty big hurt.
