| | Salsa (sauce) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Salsa is the Spanish and Italian word for sauce, from Latin salsa "salty", from sal, "salt"; "saline" and "salad" are related words. |
 | | Salsa roja, "red sauce": used as a condiment in Mexican and southwestern U.S. cuisine, and usually made with cooked tomatoes, chili peppers, onion, garlic, and fresh cilantro (coriander leaves). |
 | | While some salsa fans decry these products as not real salsa cruda, their widespread availability and long shelf life are credited with much of salsa's enormous popularity in states outside of the southwest, especially in places where salsa is not a traditional part of the cuisine. |
