The company has a history of expertise with fruit-inspired salsas, includ- ing its luscious Raspberry Salsa and smoky sweet Pineapple Chipotle Salsa. This new product is a perfect addition to the line, featuring tasty blueberries along with crisp apples – always New England favorites. The recipe starts with a base of toma- toes, sweet red peppers and a touch of jalapeño. Apples lend a smooth texture to the mix, with mildly sweet undertones. In the finished product, the blueberries re- main whole and impart a hint of blueberry flavor that is brightly sweet without being overwhelming. Dark red in color, this salsa is mildly spicy – a 2 on a scale of 1 to 10 (Stonewall Kitchen's flaming hot Ghost Pepper Salsa gets a 10!), which makes it a quick and easy dip to offer at family gatherings like pool parties or barbecues. Serving possibil- ities abound for this exciting new offering. It's a great partner for chicken tacos, tostadas or taco salad, or try it atop a pork, cheddar and green apple quesadilla for a gourmet twist on a favorite lunch. Of course, you can't go wrong pair- ing this salsa with Stonewall Kitchen's crunchy and delicious Yellow Tortilla Chips. A sensational accompaniment to all kinds of snacks, this novel salsa brings two beloved Maine fruits together for a winning combination. Stonewall Kitchen 888.326.5678 www.stonewallkitchen.com
