What is salsa pasta?
Salsa pasta is a pasta dish where salsa typically a tomato-based, fresh, or jarred sauce with onions, peppers, and seasonings is used instead of traditional cooked Italian pasta sauce. It can be served warm with cooked pasta or chilled as a pasta salad.
Does the type of salsa matter?
Indeed. A thick salsa is less effective as a pasta sauce than one that is thinner and finely minced. If your salsa is extremely thick, you can improve its texture by blending it a little or mixing it with some pasta water or olive oil.
