The Best Salsas to Slather on Everything

Salsa makes everything better, and it's probably our favorite condiment. The word simply means "sauce," and can be many things—a smooth purée, a chunky relish, a potent dip. These recipes are perfect for a variety of uses: as dips for your tortilla chips; a braising liquid for pork; a creamy, spicy cloak for shrimp; and more. We even like to eat some of them right off the fork (pineapple salsa, we're looking at you). So whether you like it spicy or mild, a good coating of salsa or just a thin layer, we've got the recipe for you.
