Notes
- Habanero peppers are very spicy. I recommend that you wear gloves when handling hot peppers and avoid touching your face. Wash your hands immediately after handling.
- Your salsa, your heat preference. Adjust the level of heat to your liking. You can add a smaller amount for a milder salsa or large amount of habanero for a spicier salsa, depending on your tolerance to spice.
- Blend to desired consistency. If you prefer a chunky salsa, pulse the ingredients for less time. For a smoother salsa, blend longer.
- Mango Habanero Salsa can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
- You can also freeze leftovers in a freezer-safe container for up to 4 months. Defrost in the refrigerator overnight!
