However, like the typical sauces used in western cuisines, salsa does not necessarily have to be smooth and thick. IT can be prepared by just dicing the vegetables and mixing them together. The result is quite an interesting taste in itself. While salsa is healthy for you, it can be bad because the store-bought ones have a very high level of sodium apart from other chemicals and preservatives used.
