Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
Fruit salsas are not the on culinary cutting edge as they were only a few years ago, but they are as popular
as ever. Instead of being found topping lightly grilled fishes and elaborately stacked entrees at high end restaurants,
they are on supermarket shelves and being whipped up in homes. They provide a great alternative to the more ordinary
tomato based salsas, with added variations and flavors. The fruits provide a sweetness that really livens up the dip
and tempers the heat of the peppers. Trader Joe’s Roasted Peach salsa is a current favorite of mine. It is smoky,
sweet and has a definite kick to it. Soft-firm fruits, like peaches, mangos, papayas and avocados typically make the best choices
for salsas, as they hold up well and have strong enough flavors to compliment other spices, without overwhelming them
or being overwhelmed. The salsas are great for dipping tortilla chips, pita chips and veggies and would be well
received at any party (football,
anyone?). They can also be mixed into a salad as a spicy alternative to regular dressings.
