Green Or Red Salsa Recipes

Steps:

• Place the tomatillos, tomatoes, oil, chili pepper, shallots, cilantro, vinegar, garlic powder, and salt in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes until the tomatillos have softened. Pour into a blender, and puree until smooth. Chill and serve.

Steps:

• If using tomatillos, discard outer husks and rinse tomatillos under warm water.
• Chop tomatoes or tomatillos fine (there should be about 1 1/2 cups) and in a bowl stir together with remaining ingredients. Let salsa stand at room temperature 30 minutes. Salsa may be made 4 hours ahead and chilled, covered.

Steps:

• On a rimmed baking sheet, broil tomatillos, onion, jalapenos, and garlic until lightly charred, 4 minutes. Puree in a blender until smooth. Thin with 1/2 to 3/4 cup water, and season with salt.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Place chipotle pepper and jalapeño pepper in small saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil and turn off heat. Set aside until chipotle is softened, about 30 minutes, and drain.
• Meanwhile place tomatillos and tomatoes in a shallow metal baking pan and roast in oven for 15-20 minutes.
• Transfer to a blender and add drained peppers (you might want to seed the chipotle first and start with half a pepper each and adjust according to taste) and oil, oregano, marjoram, lime juice, salt & pepper and cilantro, if desired. Blend well until smooth.

Steps:

• In a food processor, place tomatillos, shallots, garlic, green chile peppers, cilantro, jalapeno pepper and salt. Using the pulse setting, coarsely chop. Cover and chill in the refrigerator until serving.
