Notes
- Chop the jalapeno peppers, green onions, and cilantro in a small food processor first before adding in the rest of the ingredients.
- To keep the salsa from getting too spicy, remove the ribs and seeds from the peppers before adding to salsa.
- Scrape the skin off the ginger with a spoon before grating.
- Use fresh lime juice and lime zest. Here are some tips for zesting limes.
- The longer this sits, the better the flavor. Also, the cranberries will release water. You might need to drain/stir the salsa before serving.
