Authentic Mexico Garden Fresh Salsa Hot Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Char the tomatoes over a gas grill or under the flame of a hot broiler for 2 minutes to char the skin, turning them until the peel blisters. Slip off the peel, and the flesh should still be firm. Remove the green stem core and cut the tomatoes in half vertically. Use a teaspoon to scoop out the seeds and discard.
• In the food processor, drop in the garlic, cilantro, green onions and jalapenos into the bowl of the food processor to chop for just a few seconds.
• Add all the remaining ingredients from the recipe, tomatoes, Serrano chili, the chopped green chilies and lime juice. The texture is somewhere between a chow-chow relish and a textured puree. You want to see tiny bits of all the vegetables throughout the salsa. Salt and pepper to taste.
• Place in fridge for approximately one hour.

Steps:

• Take the stems off the peppers and throw away the stems.
• Place the peppers and seeds in the bender. Blend well.
• Next toss in the stewed tomatoes with juice, 1 jalepeno (sliced), 1/2 yellow onion (quarterd), 1 garlic clove, handful of cilantro, lemon juice, salt and pepper and blend til you have the consistancy desired.
• I dont like my salsa chunky, thats what Pico De Gallo is! I also dont want it to runny so it runs off your chips, so i just "pulse" it a few times.
• If you feel the salsa looks to white from the onion this just means you need to add more cilantro to your salsa. Try the salsa with your chips and adjust the seasonings as needed.
• Refridgerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

Steps:

• Boil Tomatoes & Jalapeños in large pot of water until tomato skins wrinkle.
• Remove Tomatoes & Jalapeños from water and carefully remove tomato skins. Discard skins.
• Remove stems from Jalapeños and depending on desired level of heat desired, you may remove some or all of the seeds and pods inside the peppers.
• Place Tomatoes and Jalapenos into VitaMix or Blender.
• Add crushed Garlic Cloves, Cilantro Leaves, Quartered Onion, Ground Cumin (Comino) to VitaMix or Blender.
• Briefly pulse ingredients until desired consistency. Do not liquefy, but blend smoother than typical Pico de Gallo.
• Put large pot back on stove and add 3 Tablespoons Olive Oil. Heat oil over medium heat.
• Carefully add salsa mix from VitaMix or Blender (if oil too hot, mixture will splatter - be careful).
• Cook salsa over medium heat for 10 minutes stirring frequently.
• Add Salt & Pepper to taste.
• Can be served warm with home made tortilla chips - refrigerate balance.

Steps:

• Heat a small ungreased cast-iron skillet over high heat. With a small sharp knife, pierce jalapenos; add to hot skillet. Cook for 15-20 minutes or until peppers are blistered and blackened, turning occasionally., Immediately place jalapenos in a small bowl; cover and let stand for 20 minutes. Peel off and discard charred skins. Remove stems and seeds., Place onion and garlic in a food processor; cover and pulse 4 times. Add the tomatoes, cilantro, salt and jalapenos. Cover and process until salsa reaches desired consistency. Chill until serving. Serve with chips.

Steps:

• In medium saucepan add onion, tomatillo and serrano and enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and boil until tomatillo is soft and changes color to a more yellow color (about 10 minutes). While these are boiling, add a few tablespoons of oil to a small saute pan over medium heat. Add the chiltepins and chile pequins for about 10 seconds and remove to drain on a paper towel. Let cool completely. When vegetables are done boiling remove from water and let cool completely. Add everything into a blender and process until smooth.
• Notes - I use 12 chile pequins and 10 chiltepins but I like my salsa pretty hot. Sometimes I will just use my deep fat fryer to toast the chiles instead of using the saute pan.
• If you like your salsa more chunky, reserve half of the tomatoes and the onion, dice and stir in at the end.

Steps:

• Toss tomato, jalapeno, onion, garlic, and cilantro together.
• Add salt and lime juice (or cider vinegar).
• Stir, and let stand 30 minutes before serving.
