Howdy Picato,

My wife and I made some salsa the other week.
She likes the fresh salsa and I like the type that is cooked a little.

So we chopped lots and lots of ingredients.
She made hers and I made mine according to some recipes we found on the SI cooking thread.

Needless to say, we have been eating hers.
...sometimes I get carried away with some of the ingredients, such as vinegar and sugar...
I rarely see the fancy chefs on TV using a measuring cup.
I simply added what I thought was enough.
Then I say the magic word, "BAM!" like that Emeril dude does.
It didn't quite work for me...
:^)

The link you provided was for a Tomato Bread Salad with Herbs. Sounds good!
Two questions:
1) Your link was to www.food.epecurious.com. What does Epicurious mean? I only just found out recently what a Piscatogist was. You keep throwing these fancy words my way...
2) Do you have any friends named Herb that I can use. According to the recipe I'm supposed to prepare this with them. Do you think they will mind being emulsified in extra-virgin olive oil?

<Chef Clappy begins contemplating how the term "virgin" applies to an olive...>

<He takes it a step further and begins wondering how something can become extra virgin...
Is it similar to having an "unopened" jar of olives and then putting the intact "unopened" jar inside a tupperware container and then wrapping tightly in Seran Wrap?>

<Who's the lucky olive who gets the job of...
oh nevermind...>

<The stooges brain begins to smoke from all the thinking he's been performing this morning...>

P.S. We will be making Tomato sauce today and canning some of it.
Anyone have any tips for cooking it and canning it?

<Clappy can't help but to wonder why do they call it "canning" if they are using those glass jars will "Ball" written on them. And what type balls were they previously used for...>

<Clappy gets a baseball, a tennis ball, a golf ball, and a ping pong ball.>

<After sizing them up carefully, the professor concludes that those Ball jars were most definitely previously used for the storage of Ping Pong Balls!>

<The clueless twit pats himself on the back and proclaims, "It's so much fun being smart.">

<Genius Clappy proudly walks away. A three foot long tail of toilet paper still stuck to his slipper is viewed as the simpleton leaves the room...>
