You would have to know your product and its pH and water activity. Also know your GMPs (21 CFR 110) and the labeling requirements (21 CFR 101).

Well if you are making salsa with hot peppers, take out the seeds, because that is where the heat is in a hot pepper. But if you already made the salsa and it is too hot, add some mango to balance out the heat. You can also try corn- anything that kinda goes with your ingredients and is sweet.
