This is OK, but add cilantro and lime. It makes all the difference!

Great with a few changes: cilantro to taste and either lemon or lime juice to taste. I also used canned jalapenoes. Turned out great kids and everyone here love it!!! Thank you.

I was simply not impressed. The beer almost ruined the flavor for me and there was NO spicy to this salsa.

this turns out much better if you roast the peppers first. i seeded them a bit but left a few for more heat. also like others have said, i added much more garlic and onion. i also usually add some fresh lime juice and cilantro as well during the blend step. after blending i usually also try to drain off a bit of the water as i like it to be a bit thicker and chunkier. as for the boiling i usually get it to a quick boil and just for a few minutes, no more than 5 for sure. anything more and it will turn to mush and get gross.

Husband loves this salsa, used corona as the Mexican beer and mild garden jalapenos. Will use this recipe again and again.

not at all like the salsa i was expecting. it was brown and not chunky at all. and very spicy even with less jalapenos than expected and no seeds.

i agree with the rest of the reviews; although the beer is a good idea, simmering the tomatoes and peppers loses their flavor. i added half an onion, x4 the garlic, and added 10 chiles tepin, but the blender made it very soupy...
