Homemade Salsa – Easy How To (video and written recipe)

I love making Homemade Salsa! Over the last few years I’ve gotten better at it. My wife, Mamakirbs, has even said… out loud… “you make really good salsa.”. That’s when I know I’ve arrived at something good.

This post is to compliment the video that I recently posted on YouTube about making Homemade Salsa.

Nucs, or nucleus colonies, are small honey bee colonies created from larger colonies. The term refers both to the smaller size box and the colony of honeybees within it. The name is derived from the fact that a nuc hive is centered on a queen, the nucleus of the honey bee colony.
