Easy Salsa
Life is hard; food doesn't have to be #177 [vol7, 5.1]
Making salsa is as easy as dumping everything in your blender. You control the portions of each ingredient. Of course fresh tomatoes are best but I keep cans in the cabinet. Please make this soon.
Ingredients
28-30oz diced tomatoes (fire roasted are super delish)
1 garlic clove or 1t powder
3 jalapeños, exterior for less heat
Salt to taste (more than you think, go slow and maybe 1t? I never measure)
Salt really makes a huge difference to enhance flavor. Please add salt.
Wanna be extra? Add some or none:
Cilantro, optional
Lime, optional
1/2t cumin, optional
Onions or powder, optional
Add to blender & give it a whirl. Keeps at least a week in the fridge.

Absolutely. Personally I think whey smells like dirty feet so I don’t like to use it as a starter. I’m more likely to add 2% salt (or just a bit saltier than normal tasting) and let it spontaneously attract a culture.
Can you add whey to this to ferment? I think I remember you saying you added sauerkraut liquid to things (some condiments) to ferment them. Does whey work the same?
