The Salsa Review
Paul's Restaurant Style - Hot
Texture: Like gravy
Flavor: Fresh tomatoes, garlic
Price: $3.99 for 16 oz
Where available: Piggly Wiggly, see website
Refrigeration: Yes
Website: http://www.paulssalsa.com
Spiciness: 4
Grade: A
I stumbled upon Paul's Salsa in the refrigerated section in the front of Piggly Wiggly in Homewood. It looks very fresh and is a local operation from Odenville, AL (Home of the state prison). I finished it off rather quickly, as it's quite good. It tastes like something you'd make at home with fresh, raw tomatoes and chopped garlic. The consistency is about as far from chunky as you can get, but Paul's does sell a chunky style version. I prefer the restaurant style, though. I have some constructive criticism to offer regarding the "Hot" label on the packaging; it is misleading. It would barely pass muster as a Medium salsa on the spicy scale, unless you are a grouchy old lady like my mother who flips out every time she eats something with black pepper in it. I just purchased a second container of Paul's, so I definitely like it regardless of the pseudo-hot label. I would love to try a spicier version of Paul's Salsa.
