The answer would be D because the word Mexican is modifying salsa. It is telling what kind of salsa it is. It begins with a capital letter indicating the word Mexican is a proper adjective.

The correct answer is D. Mexican.

This is because Mexican here is an adjective, not a noun. It describes the origin of the salsa, not a person who is from Mexico.
