After a minute in blender salsa should be red and mixed. Taste, to make sure it is hot enough or to hot or needs more salt. If you need more or less of something, make sure to add a little at a time to make sure you don't put to much. If salsa is to hot add more water. Now your ready to add salsa to tacos, burritos, or anything else you want. Enjoy!
