Cuisinart Smart Stick CSB-77 - Manual (Page 24)

24
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
1½ teaspoons rice vinegar (may use raspberry or
white balsamic vinegar)
½ teaspoon honey
Insert the blade assembly in the prep bowl. Put the red bell pepper pieces into
the prep bowl and use the pulse to coarsely chop, 6–8 pulses. Transfer to a
1-quart bowl and reserve. Add the garlic, jalapeño pepper and onion to the prep
bowl, pulse 5 to 10 times to chop. Remove and add to chopped red pepper. Add
mango and cilantro to prep bowl and pulse until mango reaches desired chopped
consistency, about 10 to 20 pulses. Transfer to the bowl with the chopped red
pepper and reserve. Stir in the lime juice, vinegar, and honey. Cover and let sit
for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to blend. If not using immediately, cover and
refrigerate. Mango Salsa is best when served the day it is prepared, but may be
prepared up to one day ahead. Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before
serving for best flavor.
