TEXAS TRASH SALSA
My husband and I lived on a small island in the Azores for two years. Fresh foods were hard to come by at times, so our group of friends all found many recipes using canned foods. This recipe is from a friend named Bobbie and I still make it today, even though I can now find a multitude of fresh ingredients. This is also good when used as a topping for hamburgers. If you want to make it spicier, you can add chopped jalapenos or hot sauce to taste. Cook time is chilling time.

Steps:
- Drain tomatoes well, reserving juice.
- Put peeled and quartered onion in a blender, then top with remaining ingredients.
- Pulse blender until ingredients are chopped as finely as you wish.
- By putting onion in the blender first, it will chop more finely than remaining ingredients.
- If salsa seems too thick, you can thin it by adding some of the reserved tomato juice.
- This can be eaten immediately, but tastes best if allowed to chill for 2 hours.
SPRING MACKEREL WITH SOUR GRAPES AND SAFFRON SALSA
This recipe comes from the Portuguese islands of Madeira and the Azores (Chicharros de Agraco com Molho de Acafrao). Fresh sardines and mackerel are favorites in the Portuguese cuisine and while fresh sardines are hard to find, mackerel are more readily available. Usually made in midsummer, the grapes used are sour because they are in the middle of their growing season and are thus immature -- you can substitute mature grapes, unless you have a vineyard nearby! The ingredients all speak of Portugal: fish, olive oil, saffron, garlic, onion, grapes. Traditionally, this is made in a casuela, an unglazed earthenware dish which will fry without burning ... you can substitute any heavy seasoned cast iron or non-stick pan. An unseasoned pan will ruin the wonderful cornmeal coating and skin of the fish ... We had this recipe at a restaurant in the Douro Valley, but this version is from Elisabeth Luard's "The Food of Spain and Portugal". Submitted for Zaar World Tour 5 (2009).

Steps:
- First make the salsa -- combine the onion, garlic, pepper, vinegar and a little salt in a bowl and marinate for the time it takes to prepare the fish.
- Dry roast the saffron threads until they barely darken (don't let them burn).
- Crush the saffron and add it to the marinating salsa in the bowl.
- Mix in the olive oil and the grapes.
- Now for the fish -- rinse and clean the fish.
- Salt both sides and the cavity.
- Dredge through the cornmeal, making sure to get a thorough coating.
- Heat up 1-2 Tbsp oil in the frying pan, then pan fry each fish for 4-6 minutes per side, turning gently to leave the cornmeal coating intact.
- Plate the fish, with the salsa along the side or passed separately.
