Salsa Authentic Recipes

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:

• Put the tomatos all but 1/2 to 1cup, garlic, half the onion, chili's, tomato paste, salt, and pepper in a blender or food processor.
• Blend until everything is incorporated well.
• In a separate container add all the rest of the ingredients.
• Be sure to dice the rest of the tomato's, cilantro and onion before adding.
• Best if left to sit in the refridgerator for up to 24 hours.
• Right before serving or eating season to taste. It may need some additional salt.

Steps:

• Combine the diced tomatoes, whole tomatoes, cilantro, onions, garlic, jalapeno, cumin, salt, sugar and lime juice in a blender or food processor. (This is a very large batch. I recommend using a 12-cup food processor, or you can process the ingredients in batches and then mix everything together in a large mixing bowl.)
• Pulse until you get the salsa to the consistency you'd like. I do about 10 to 15 pulses. Test seasonings with a tortilla chip and adjust as needed.
• Refrigerate the salsa for at least an hour before serving.

Steps:

• Place roma (plum) tomatoes and serrano peppers in a medium saucepan over medium high heat with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil. Boil 15 minutes. Remove from heat and drain.
• Place roma tomatoes, serrano peppers, onion, cilantro and garlic in a blender or food processor. Puree about 30 seconds, or to desired consistency. Transfer to a medium serving bowl, and salt to taste.

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:

• In a small bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. Cover and refrigerate until serving. Serve with tortilla chips.

Steps:

• Follow ingredient instructions to microwave peppers. Cut ingredients to fit in blender.
• All all ingredients to blender and blend to desired consistency (add a sliver of the habenero to start).
• Refrigerate leftovers.
• NOTE: May need to add more salt or even cilantro if necessary. Adjust ingredients according to taste or heat desired. If too hot, add another tomato.

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:

• In a medium-size mixing bowl, combine tomatoes, onion, cilantro, garlic, lime juice, tomatillo, and salt to taste. Mix well. Add 1/2 of the jalapeno pepper, and taste. If you desire your salsa with more of a kick, add the remaining 1/2 jalapeno. If you are satisfied with the salsa's heat, do not add the remaining jalapeno pepper. Cover the salsa, and chill until ready to serve.
