Know Your Salsa
We love salsa! Not just the dance, but also the food! While both are equally important in Latin culture, one is significantly easier to do than the other!
Simply made from chopped fresh ingredients, they can be spicy or mild and there is no need to cook them! Salsas are a very distinct aspect of Latin cuisine, learn more about them here!
