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?
all THREE!
Hi! Did they serve all the salsas at the same time? I have to agree with the comment above: I would like all three!
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 🙂
Currently I am addicted to salsa de chile piquin. Lovely pic!
Bonnie, I have an AMAZING salsa de chile piquin recipe I’ll have to put up for you then!
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…
I’m a salsa verde girl…. even though I have been known to eat super hot red too. 🙂
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) 😉
Salsa verde, pero me gusta picante!
All three look great to me! Such pretty colors and I bet they taste amazingly fresh.
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!!
They all look so beautiful but I’ll take the least spicy one 🙂
I prefer to eat raw jalapenos but I like any salsa as long as it is hot.
I love serrano with aguacate. I pretty much love anything with aguacate. My brother makes the best tomatillo salsa ever!
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
