Strawberry Ancho Salsa

Author Notes

I was inspired to create this recipe by a review I read on food52 of a strawberry guajillo jam. Strawberries and chilis do have a natural affinity for each other, and in this case I combine raw berries with just a hint of toasted ancho chili, although you could easily substitute a jalapeño. The freshness of the salsa is further enhanced with finely chopped spring onions, cilantro and plenty of lime juice. A great condiment for grilled fish, the flavors in this are an unexpected twist on both strawberries and salsa. - mollysmenu —mollysmenu

Test Kitchen Notes

This combination of strawberries and chiles is definitely worth trying. The salsa has a nice balance of sweet and sour with a little spice and smoke. Depending on how juicy your limes are, you may not need all the juice. I'd follow mollysmenu's advice and try it on grilled fish. - Stephanie —The Editors
