Post #1 - July 17th, 2004, 7:42 amI'm looking for people's favorite recommendations for store bought slasa. When I don't have the time or inclination to make it myself, I'd like to have some good go to alternatives. Does anyone have a recommendation for some homemade salsa at a mexican market?Steve Z.

Try Lindo Michoacan at Lawrence and Kedzie.Saturdays are especially good for pre made items. Carnitas, chickens,homemade tortillas,salsas etc.

Post #3 - July 17th, 2004, 10:01 amI like the smoother non chunky salsa and El Famous Burrito on Clark St in Rogers Park (a block N of Lunt) has my favorite salsa. It is a fresh salsa and I buy it in large batches. I use it in cooking all the time, it is a crucial ingredient in my guacamole and my marinated Mexican chicken.I used to think the brain was the most important part of the body. Then I realized who was telling me that.

Post #5 - July 17th, 2004, 6:46 pmYou might call Mimi at Sweet Occasions to see if she has any in stock. She makes a medium and a hot -- the medium is sometimes what many commercial brands consider hot, and there have been batches of hot that I simply was unable to handle. But it's very, very good.
