Our kitchen's made-from-scratch products are ever changing and growing as we develop more relationships with local growers and this cucumber salsa is a perfect example. We're able to use local cucumbers, herbs, onions, tomatoes and peppers to highlight the flavors of the season. And now we're sharing the recipe with you!
To make this salsa you will need:
1 large cucumber, peeled, seeded & diced 1/2 pound cucumber, peeled, seeded, & diced 1/4 pounds red onion, finely diced 1/4 pounds fresh tomato, seeded & minced 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, finely diced 1/4 cup fresh mint, finely diced 1 fresh jalapeno, seeded & minced 2 tablespoons lime juice 1 tablespoon safflower oil 1 teaspoon sea salt 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
Peel the cucumbers, cut them in half lengthwise, and remove the seeds with a spoon. Then finely dice them. Prep the rest of the vegetables as directed and place them all in a large bowl. Whisk together the safflower oil, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Toss with the vegetables, adjusting salt and pepper to taste. Serve with tortilla chips or as a refreshing topping for tacos.
