and the winner of the salsa contest is....


I can't believe I forgot to announce this! When we had the Los Gordos Chili Cook-Off and Salsa Contest a couple of weeks ago, our own Nomad, UDO WINKLER, took FIRST PLACE in the "regular" category in the salsa contest.

Congratulations, Udo! See you at the Rib Cook-off on Oct 16???

Udo and Jana were staying with us, and he kindly left a fair amount of the salsa in our fridge. I put it through a food mill, added some olive oil and half-and-half, and enjoyed some of the best gazpacho I've ever had. Udo has a gift! (not to be confused with the German word "gift")

Thanks, Kath!
I wasn't expecting an announcement since this was a chili cook-off and salsa is sort-of like a step child to chili.
But thanks in any case.
The hat was so shocking that the vendors at La Bufadora were in total awe and were silent when Jana and I walked by. Should be a keeper for Nomad events!
I think there is a better photo (larger one) on Kathleen's facebook pages.

It was just a regular salsa, fish, but it had some visual enhancements plus some minced cucumber (minus the seed core) added just before the tasting took place, to give it some "freshly made flavor".

Ken,
I use whatever is in season at the market, generally a combination of 5-8 different peppers (all minced).
This last time I used, güeros, (I used three colors of the güeros), anaheim, fresno, poblano, jalapeño, manzano, and one habañero. Each was deseeded and deveined. You may add any others to suit your flavor direction as well as heat. Keep in mind that heat will diminish rapidly in the presence of tomatoes.
