Salsa
Tomatoes in various colors (each color is a different acidity and gives your salsa a complex flavor)
(you can blacken some of them for smoky flavor)
Sweet and Hot Peppers - seeded and blackened in a cast iron pan
Tomatillo
Onion
Garlic
Cilantro
Salt
Pepper
Cayenne
Cumin
Cucumber - with the peels on and I like to put the bitter end in for complex flavor
Lime juice and zest
Whey
I don't have amounts. What I do is go and pick in the garden and throw everything into the food processor. I blend it to chunky and season it to taste. It tastes different every time. It is a family favorite.
The whey cultures the tomato mixture and adds all kinds of wonderful health benefits. This is an enzyme rich, antioxidant rich, nutrient dense food that packs a big health punch!
I still have a partial jar of lacto-fermented salsa in the fridge from the end of last summer...today, I bought some local tomatoes (hydrofarmed) to make some more! Good stuff.
