For a smoother salsa, pulse the combined ingredients in a food processor a few times, but be careful not to over-process. If fresh jalapeños are available, feel free to substitute them for the canned variety. Remember to remove the seeds for less heat. Add a pinch of cumin for a smoky depth of flavor. Serve with tortilla chips, tacos, grilled chicken, or fish. This salsa is best enjoyed fresh, but it can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
