Tomato salsa


The standard way to make tomato salsa is simply remove tomato skin, cut into cubes, add basil, season with salt & pepper, garlic(optional) and olive oil.


I don't remove the liquid and seeds from the tomato before cutting up because I read that the liquid has a lot of umami flavor.



There is always a lot of liquid coming out of the salsa after seasoning, a bit too much to be mopped up with bread.




So I used the fruit drier to half dry the tomato first (after removing skin, with the seed and liquid intact), the result is a deep red salsa with intense tomato flavor.
