You got it!! It's canning season.....Looking at 60+ jars this year....

Do you have a mixer? like a Hobart or a Kitchenaid? What I am getting at is you can really just quarter all those and send them through the meat grinder attachment with the lagest die: you get everything at the same chopsize in 10 minutes.

Nope it's all hand-cut -- I just personally prefer the texture of the salsa when the ingredients are hand cut instead of putting the tomatoes thru a ricer....

The only part that's a real PITA is skinning the tomatoes....

I admire that. It can take longer and be a bitch sometimes, but it's nice to see someone take a special effort to do something right.
 
Not as serious as I thought.

When I saw the thread title, I naturally imagined the worst, and assumed you were crazy enough to click open one of Chef's emails and saw one of his self nudes photos

Thank you!! :)

After years of experimenting, I've found a way that I like my salsa and I'm sticking with it.....

May try making some black bean & corn salsa this year too.....

Yum, tell us how it turns out. :)
 
hand cut it is... a big die on a meat grinder pumps out 1/4 inch chunks, ricers tend to purree: purree for salsa no bueno. You found your groove, cheers on the salsa fest.
 
u think cutting onion is bad... try frying without a shirt on.. thats what i did this morning .. once u start there is no going back. As for the onions try placin them in cold water for 10-20 minutes before cutting them. It shouldn't kill ur eyes.
