Hi Ian! Give it a whirl and let me know if it worked...maybe try using half the amount for your first batch. Cheers!

I don't normally like cilantro but ill try soaking some and see if it takes away the taste I don't like. Nice job. :-)

Sounds awesome Priscilla! Can't wait try your salsa!

Dan Parry (author) 11 months ago

Sounds good my friend, you can mix up the recipe by adding real tomatoes, and even more of a mix by toasting your tomatoes on a pan a little, and also adding some pepper. :) I'll have to snapguide my salsas :P

I made this to go with dinner last night. Once you balance out the salt, heat and acidity to your taste (I used some extra lime) it was really great. Thanks!
