Lastly, here is a great recipe for salsa sauce which I got from a
Californian friend of mine (Lynne Deal) recently.

                       DEAL'S CALIFORNIAN SALSA
                      --------------------------

4 *large* tomatoes - *ripe*, peeled, seeded + chopped (see below)
1 tablespoon seeded, finely chopped *hot* peppers
2 tablespoon finely chopped fresh cilantro
1 small red onion, finely chopped
1 large clove garlic, finely chopped
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar (or lemon juice)
1 teaspoon salt

To peel tomatoes, immerse in boiling water for *less* than 1 minute,
then plunge into ice water and the skin will slip off. Squeeze out seeds,
chop.

Balance of ingredients is according to taste, especially the chilis. Try
*lots* of cilantro and garlic and add chopped red and green sweet peppers.
