It’s easy to remember the difference if you remember that salsa is just like a chocolate chip cookie if you were to remove the eggs, butter, sugar, baking soda, vanilla, chocolate chips, and flour and then add chopped tomatoes, jalapenos, lime juice, cilantro, red onion and salt and pepper. And antipasto is just like a chocolate chip cookie if you were to remove the eggs, butter, sugar, baking soda, vanilla, chocolate chips, and flour and then add salami, prosciutto, provolone, fresh mozzarella, and olives.
