Salsa Sauce

Content: Salsa is typically made with tomatoes, of course, and also with peppers and onions (Salsa Macha gourmet salsa, however is a little different). Americans eat a lot more spicy foods than they used to, and salsa is a natural part of these foods. Salsa is also incorporated into some weight loss diets, since it is usually full of vitamins, high in fiber and low in calories. You could buy Texas salsa starting in the 1940’s. One company in operation then, in San Antonio, is one of the leading makers of salsa today – Pace Foods. Other popular brands include Old El Paso and Frito-Lay. Also in the 1940’s, Henry Tanklage started making La Victoria salsa. He introduced people to enchiladas and green and red taco sauces, as well. These were among the first hot sauces in the United States. In the 1970’s, America was introduced to Desert Rosa Salsa, and Jardine’s commercial salsa, and Austin became America’s hot sauce capital.
