Two salsas.
Six ribbons.
One happy Thursday.
The 2012 Washington farmers market "Tasters Choice" salsa contest was held a few weeks ago.
The awards were handed out this afternoon.
My cherry salsa was queen:
- 1st place - most votes overall
- 2nd place - most 1st choice votes
- 1st place - most 2nd choice votes
My grilled sweet corn-zucchini salsa was very consistent:
- 4th place - most votes overall
- 4th place - most 1st choice votes
- 4th place - most 2nd choice votes
But just like last year, Tim at Cafe Dodici was one step ahead of me, winning most votes for the 1st choice category.
Next year....next year.

It was another great market for selling bread, cookies and macaroons! I am loving this new endeavor and need to figure out how to spend more time doing it!
Wow, congrats on all the ribbons! I'll have to search your site, but I make a GRILLED cherry salsa that is amazeballs. The cherries carmelize and you get a smokey flavor to the salsa - it takes a regular cherry salsa over the top - maybe try that next year?
