About Salsa criolla

Salsa Criolla is a vibrant condiment originating from Latin American cuisine, particularly popular in Peru and Argentina. This flavorful salsa typically combines thinly sliced red onions, fresh tomatoes, bell peppers, cilantro, lime juice, vinegar, and a touch of oil, along with optional seasonings like garlic and chili for added zest. Known for its balance of tangy, spicy, and fresh flavors, it’s commonly used to enhance grilled meats, fish, and potatoes, or as a topping for hearty dishes. Nutritionally, Salsa Criolla is rich in vitamins A and C from the vegetables and herbs, which support immune health and skin vitality. Its minimal oil content makes it relatively light on calories and fat. However, sodium levels may vary depending on added salt or vinegar, so mindful seasoning can keep it heart-healthy. This simple, nutrient-rich salsa adds a burst of flavor without compromising a balanced diet.
