1. "Is it too spicy?"
Heat tolerance is different for everyone, that's why we have mild to extra hot salsas. Check these out:
- Mild Hatch Green Chile Salsa: This has a gentle heat with a tangy cilantro flavor and a fresh lime finish.
- Medium Hatch Red Chile Salsa: It has a little kick for a tomato salsa.
- Hot 575 Sauce: It's packed with adobo sauce and jalapeños for those who love a spicy kick.
We want to bring out the flavor and fire in every salsa we make. Experience the best and most balanced homemade salsa recipe with us!
2. "Do they ship well?"
We do, and it's one of our greatest prides! We carefully pack and refrigerate our salsas before sending them off to keep them fresh.
Once the salsas are in your hands, keep them chilled in your fridge after opening. If you ever get a bad jar, we'll make it right with our 90-Day Money-Back Guarantee.
3. "Can I freeze it?"
Of course! Freeze your salsa in an airtight container or a bowl if you want to keep it for several hours or days. Thaw and stir it into your dishes before serving to bring back its flavor and texture.
4. "Is it as good as homemade salsa?"
Yes! We make salsas that taste great and are made with fresh ingredients, including garlic, yellow onion, and garden tomatoes.
We craft our salsas in small batches, and every jar is made with the same care and detail as your own recipe.
Making the Salsa The Fresh Chile Company Way
Here at The Fresh Chile Company, a jar of deliciously spicy salsa begins in the Hatch Valley, the world's chile capital.
Each batch of Salsa contains handpicked Hatch chiles grown in the unique climate of southern New Mexico. The warm days and cool nights create juicy, spicy, and flavorful chiles.
Here's how we all turn them into our signature spicy salsa taste:
1. Roasted in Flames
We roast our tomatoes, onions, and Hatch chiles in flames so you can taste the smoky depth in every bite. This improves the natural sweetness of the tomatoes, making our salsas authentically homemade.
2. Using Fresh, Local Ingredients
Our fresh tomato salsa recipes are made of cherry tomatoes, hothouse tomatoes, and Roma tomatoes. We don't use canned tomatoes or cut corners, so you get the best flavor possible in every jar.
3. Balanced Recipes That Suit Anything
Our chefs cook each salsa recipe with the right amount of spice, lime, and texture. They complement tacos and tortilla chips just fine. The salsa recipes are also fantastic bases for cooking, like adobo sauce marinades and chili recipes.

What Makes Good Salsa a Kitchen Darling
So what does it truly take to make a good salsa? Here's a consensus of our customers and Reddit community on these essentials:
Fresh Ingredients
Throw in fresh tomatoes, lime, cilantro, onion, garlic, and a small amount of cumin or chili powder. It's up to you if you want to finely chop or roughly chop your ingredients—you just need to preserve their texture and fresh flavor.
Balance Everything as Much as You Can
A salsa should be spicy, but it also comes with a good balance of salt, acid, and a hint of sweetness, especially when a pinch of sugar is added. Brighten up the flavor with lemon or lime juice, and enhance it with salt and pepper.
Chill Before Serving
Put your homemade salsa recipe in the fridge for at least an hour before serving it to your guests. This is the time for the seasonings and juice to mix and develop the fresh, flavorful taste.
Blend or Pulse However You Want
Use a food processor or blender to make a smoother, more consistent tomato salsa. You can also pulse it to achieve a pico de gallo-like dip.
The desired texture depends on what you want. Some love it roughly chopped, while others prefer it finely chopped. Others also like a smooth salsa dip for tortilla chips.
