There's a local place here that I've been going to for 20+ years. I love their salsa and frequently get a couple pints for takeout. I've never been able to eat Pace or the like - tastes like ketchup. We have a local store whose deli doesn't a pretty decent fresh made, but it's not the same as this restaurant. I stopped by last night to pick some up and asked if they'd ever give out the recipe. They said absolutely not. So now I'm wondering how to go about recreating their recipe.
I can see the basics of what's in it - maters, onions, peppers (dunno what kind), cilantro. I'm sure there's salt and maybe other spices/lemon juice etc. There's not a lot of liquid, so I don't know if they dice everything and then strain it a little. I'll post a pic of it later on when I'm home.
Anyone recreated a restaurant recipe? Just trial and error?
