About
Salsa is an essential part of every Mexican meal. They balance and enliven, add color and texture, and are endlessly adaptable. Elevate your salsa game with chef and cookbook author Gino Garcia as he takes you on a tour of technique and flavor through five complex traditional Mexican salsas: salsa roja (tomato-based boiled salsa); salsa aguacate (creamy uncooked avocado salsa); salsa macha (fried, oil-based salsa with three types of dried red chile, peanuts, and garlic); salsa borracha (a sauteed salsa with tomato, dried chile, orange, and Mexican lager); and a fermented hot sauce that you'll start to make in class and take home to finish.
