I've always been fascinated by the different salsas served alongside my meal at any taquería. I ate all three of these (rojo con chile de árbol; verde con chile serrano y aguacate; cebolla roja con habanero) at my favorite taquería in Chicago, La Lagartija, this past weekend. They were just too pretty to not take a picture! One of the things I love about eating at taquerías is that each one has different salsas, and often the salsas are just as important as what goes in the taco.
- What's your favorite kind of salsa?
rachel says
all THREE!
Mercedes says
Hi! Did they serve all the salsas at the same time? I have to agree with the comment above: I would like all three!
Maura Hernandez says
Hi Mercedes, yes, they serve all three at the same time in that little salsa caddy so you can choose one, two or even all three to put on your tacos 🙂
Bonnie at Sweet Life says
Currently I am addicted to salsa de chile piquin. Lovely pic!
Maura Hernandez says
Bonnie, I have an AMAZING salsa de chile piquin recipe I'll have to put up for you then!
Aurelia @ PowerfulLatinas says
My favorite salsa depends on the taco! It's different for tacos al pastor (pineapple, onion, cilantro and lime) than for fish tacos (creamy guacamole con crema) or...
Presley's Pantry says
I'm a salsa verde girl.... even though I have been known to eat super hot red too. 🙂
Maura Hernandez says
I'm usually a salsa verde girl too, but am known best in our family for my salsa de chile morita (I'm sure you can guess the jokes that fly at the dinner table when we're all together and Maurita is making the salsa morita) 😉
Vianessa says
Salsa verde, pero me gusta picante!
Joscelyn at MamiofMultiples.com says
All three look great to me! Such pretty colors and I bet they taste amazingly fresh.
Bren says
i have to go with the typical response and say that pico is one of my favorites... but i also love making a black bean and corn salsa! It's so refreshing. But then a piña con mint and a few other goodies is also amazing!!
Lisa Quinones-Fontanez says
They all look so beautiful but I'll take the least spicy one 🙂
Carlos says
I prefer to eat raw jalapenos but I like any salsa as long as it is hot.
Unknown Mami says
I love serrano with aguacate. I pretty much love anything with aguacate. My brother makes the best tomatillo salsa ever!
Tia M Richardson says
I love Salsa Huérfana. But do NOT even want to know what is in it. Because after 3 years of indulging off-and-on with this salsa; it still tears my insides up. ha ha
