So.....yesterday my daughter helped me make salsa using some of the tomatoes & a couple different kinds of peppers from our garden. We tried the recipe Matt shared from the USDA. It had to sit for 24hours, so we tasted it this afternoon.....too lemony.

The recipe called for 1 1/2 cups of commercially bottled lemon or lime juice, which at the time I thought was a lot....but I had never made salsa so I mixed it into the veggies. Is there any way for me to counter the lemon taste? I would hate to toss out the rest of the jars & other than the lemon bit it tastes pretty good.

Thank you!

Keep smiling!
