Cilantro is the Spanish word for coriander. Many people have the hereditary gene that makes you taste soap including me. I am told you can substitute fresh parsley leaves along with ground cumin. even basil leaves but may change the flavor a bit.

Dane try Vallarta supermarkets. We have it in the Central Valley and a lot of their shit is over priced but their salsas, homemade tortillas, and beans w/queso is actually pretty damn good. I was lucky that my wife recently stumbled upon how to make chipotle style guacamole but slightly better and way cheaper as their guacamole at Vallarta is ten got damn dollars lol

I grab a couple of pounds of their seasoned chicken al carbon, fresh chips, 10 avocadoes for $5 bucks and several different salsas a couple of times a month. They're super cheap, even on common items found at Ralphs and so forth. Their ceviche rocks, too. |

You don't "run" a salsa. The movements are much more exquisite than that...

1. Tacos Jaliscos - Dodge City-(not the one in the mall, the one on Wyatt Earp) Very watery, and the temp rating can vary quite a bit per batch, but very tasty IMO. My favorite. 2. Tapias Mexican Restaurant- Belpre, KS (between Kinsley and Stafford)- Pretty good mix of tomatoes and sauce, VERY hard to find if you don't know it's there, but definitely worth the stop. 3. Tacos Chavas- Dodge City- This is a yellow food truck, they have Tacos Pastor that are some of the best tacos I've ever had in my life. It is usually parked around the Heartland IPA Grocery/Shell Station on Comanche St, I think its a salsa verde on the tacos, but I think you can get it on the chips too. 4. El Korita- Dodge City- Very cool $1 ala carte menu under glass 2 days a week (Wed and Thurs I think) mini tacos, flautas, decent red salsa with chips, a little salty. 5. Cant remember the name, and not on google maps, and i think the name changes like every couple of months, but South Dodge City burrito shop next to Johns auto bodyon S. 14th You have to specially request the green sauce, but they give it to you in a giant bottle and it is great on one of their super burritos. 6. El Charro- Dodge City- much thicker and tomatoey, but still decent. The portons here are usually larger than you can eat. There is fantastic Mexican food there, it's literally the only thing I miss about living there. I sure don't miss the wind or the cattle smell. Note- It's been a few years since I lived there so some of these might have gone under. do not go to Casa Alvarez in DC, they are routinely cited for food and health violations. |

Of course, that's counter to the marketing scheme of saying things are crazy hot when it's really fairly mild relative to the serious stuff. This is a great thread, I need to grab more of the Hatch Chile salsa and more Mrs Renfros, and try some others. |

There is a restaurant in the suburbs, far enough away I haven't bothered so far as to go back there and interrogate them, but they had a salsa I wish I could replicate. But I haven't really run into anything quite like it.
It was mostly clear, almost like it was thickened with cornstarch [though I'm sure that's not it], but basically a syrupy consistency with little bits suspended in it. The heat and flavor was fresh habanero and cilantro. But then it had these little . . . pearls . . . of garlic AND AVOCADO. Like the size of a quinoa or tabbouleh. The garlic was roasted, so it was very soft, and both the garlic and avocado kind of 'burst' like dipping dots when you ate it. Very tasty, at first you get the heat of habanero and the snap of cilantro, then you get the burst of garlic and avocado that made it less spicy and a little creamy. Fascinating. I really don't how how they got so fine a dice of things so soft without it turning to paste. I assume they went to the trouble of freezing them first. |
