How to Make Fresh Salsa Using the Samson 6-in-1 Juicer

The Samson 6-in-1 Juicer really is an extremely versatile kitchen appliance (it’s like having 6 machines in 1, duh!). One of its functions is mincing (meat, herbs, fruits and veggies, spices, etc). I usually make this fresh salsa recipe by chopping away at all the ingredients, but now that I have my Samson Juicer, I realized how much easier making this dish will be! Additionally, this makes a nice thick almost homogenized salsa, rather than a chunky one (no more chunks of onion or garlic to throw people off!)

Homemade salsa is so much healthier for you than store bought salsa. First and foremost, you are getting all fresh veggies, with no preservatives. Store bought salsa is low quality vegetables that have been sitting and sogging up in that jar with preservatives for God only knows how long! Secondly, there is no sugar in this recipe. I’m not sure why, but lots of jarred salsas have sugar added to them – unnecessary! Finally, you can control your salt content in case you are trying to lower your sodium intake or have a cholesterol or heart condition. Aside from the health benefits, this recipe tastes about a million times better (yep, I’m making that claim- a million times better) than prepacked salsa. Seriously, once you try this, you won’t ever be able to eat store bought salsa again.

Note: The recipe below will make a rather large batch of salsa. I always make large batches because my family loves it and I can never seem to keep it for more than 2 or 3 days (if that!). However, if you live alone or only want a small amount of salsa, feel free to cut the recipe in half.

Ingredients:

• 8 plum tomatoes
• 3/4 – 1 whole small white onion
• 3 jalapenos **Note: This makes a very spicy salsa. If you are sensitive to heat, start off only mincing 1 jalapeno. You can always add more but you can’t take it out!**
• 1 large clove of garlic
• 1 bunch of cilantro
• Salt to taste

Juicer Setup:

Set up your Samson 6-in-1 Juicer using only the drum cap and mincing cone (you don’t need a nozzle).

Directions:

1. Rinse the above ingredients and cut them into the right size for your juicer.
2. Put them all through the juicer and watch it mince. No need to send the ingredients through separately; you will be mixing them anyway!
3. Put minced mixture in a bowl, add some salt to taste and stir.
4. You can enjoy this fresh salsa with tortilla chips, as a topping on some grilled chicken or  steak, on your eggs in the morning (one of my favorites), and of course, with any Mexican dish (tortillas, tacos, sopes, tamales, etc). Really, your options are endless!
