I'm Stephanie Hansen and this is Halftime with Tastebuds.
Today I'm going to teach you how to
make a very easy restaurant style mild salsa
that's perfect for game day. You're going to
start with one can of fire roasted tomatoes
and put it in your favorite blender.
You're also going to add one jalapeno.
If you don't like it spicy, you can omit the seeds.
Three cloves of garlic,
one onion that I've just chopped into some chunks.
I've got a little bit of oregano just
to give it that little Mexican flair.
We've got some sugar, a little bit of salt. We've got some hot sauce.
I use about five drops, six drops.
We've got cumin and a little cayenne pepper.
And this is our magic ingredient.
This is tahini.
It's a little bit spicy, but it's got that nice hint of lime, too.
I've got cilantro and you can use the leaves and the stems.
You could use parsley, but it's not going to taste the same.
We're also going to juice one full lime.

All right.
Let's let the blender do all the work.
There it goes.
We're all done.
You want to leave it so that it's a little bit chunky.
So that when you're putting it on a chip,
it still has a little bit of texture to it.
I'm telling you, this is perfect salsa.
And that's all there is to it, Taste Buds.
Oh, did you want a chip? Sit. Stay. Be good. Good boy, Stanley.
Taste Buds, this is an awesome restaurant-style salsa for you.
Happy game day.
