condiment Just another mango salsa

I know there are a few good mango and habanero salsas floating around on here, and I'm not breaking any news with the statement that red habaneros were seemingly made to blend with mangos, but I thought I'd throw my salsa recipe up here because there is some variation

1 gallon of tomatoes peeled, run through the food processor briefly and drained
3 mangos, peeled, seeded
1 peach (I happened to find it in the fridge)
1 red onion
1/2 to 3/4 cups pineapple sage
chop up the onion, mangos, peach, and sage in the food processor as well
4 limes - juiced, add the juice
12 habaneros and 2 scotch bonnets processed well
stir it all together and you have plenty of fresh salsa to share and eat

obviously the amount of peppers can be adjusted as can the type - but it seems that you should use a fruity pepper since there are so many good, hot, and fruity tasting peppers.
I started using the pineapple sage instead of cilantro and am very pleased, it's worth growing just for this salsa I've decided.
Anyway, enjoy!

Sounds like a good recipe...

Two herbs that I'm growing this year for the 1st time are the pineapple sage and the curry plants. The sage plant is hugh and hasn't bolted yet!
I've actually try a "Mojito" style drink with "muddled" sage leaves and rum.
As far as the curry plant, I just strip off the leaves as you would a thyme plant, I've used them in marinades, stir fries, rice dishes, ....heck might even go well in a salsa!
Next year I'll grow a few more of those plants.........good luck with your salsa recipe
 
Yeah, my pineapple sage is huge as well, so it's easy to use a quite a bit of it for the salsa. I think its fragrance is stronger than its taste, but it's been a good edition. I've not tried growing a curry plant - sounds interesting...
