Note

For a milder salsa, remove the seeds and ribs from the hot peppers before mincing, or use jalape&# 195;±os instead of habaneros or serranos.

If you prefer a smoother consistency, you can pulse the mixture briefly in a food processor, but be careful not to puree it completely if you like a chunky texture.

This salsa tastes best when served fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The flavors will intensify slightly as it sits.

Ensure the tomatoes are well-drained after peeling and seeding to prevent the salsa from becoming too watery.
