1 tomato

chop, chill, serve

A little bit of green peppers, tomatoes and oh yeah, ME, Katie Daniels to make it spicy because I am HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT

5 lbs. fresh, ripe, whole tomatoes, cored (do not peel)
1/2 large yellow onion, chopped
1 head garlic (about 6 cloves)
4 fresh jalapenos
2 oz (by weight) fresh cilantro, chopped

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place cored whole tomatoes and whole jalapenos in a shallow pan (a cookie sheet with sides), in a single layer, and roast for 30 minutes until tomatoes and jalapenos are charred (they will be black, but that is what takes away the acidity and gives the roasted flavor; you don't have to turn them).

While tomatoes and jalapenos are roasting, saute the onion in hot oil (vegetable or olive oil) until transparent and let cool.

After tomatoes and jalapenos are roasted, place all ingredients in a blender (leaving tomatoes and jalapenos whole) and blend for
about 15 seconds, taking care not to overblend or the mixture will be too watery (you may have to do this in several batches). You can also vary the amount of jalapenos or garlic to your taste.

I cut roma tomatoes into quarters and put them in a chopper. Set them aside. (Roma work the best because they have the least amount of juice, making your salsa less runny) I then put a red onion in the chopper along with jalapeno (to taste) and other kinds of peppers. While chopping the peppers and onion I add cilantro to the mix. Occasionally I will squeeze a lime into the mix. Add them all together and serve for a wonderful salsa!

Can't. I don't have one. What I do have that may be of interest to you, however, is the address of a website where many good cooks have already submitted their favorite recipes. Go to www.cooks.com and use their search box to find salsa recipes. All the recipes there have been submitted by folks who use and like them enough to want to share them.

In a blender
* 1 16oz can tomatoes
* 2 or 3 jalape?o peppers
* 1/4 teaspoon of salt
* 1/4 teaspoon of garlic
* just a pinch of oregano
* 1 teaspoon of olive oil


pour in a jar, add 1/2 cup of diced onion 2 tablespoons of fresh chopped cilantro. Keeps in refrigerator 7 or 8 days very well.

Tip: The number 1 tip of all tips. "TASTE" your food 3 or 4 times during cooking process.Make this a habit, assuming we don't go to extremes too much of or not enough of anyone spice, if caught in time, you can make adjustments, or even live with it.


With exception of salt, in my opinion, salt number 1 spice too much, is too much not enough is bland. Regardless of recipe.

CHILE SALSA (WITH VARIATIONS)

6 chiles de arbol
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 very large or 2 medium tomatoes (3/4 lb.)
1/4 cup onion, peeled and quartered
2 tablespoons tomato juice or V8
3 cloves garlic, peeled
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste

Heat olive oil in a skillet; roast the chiles (be sure there is good ventilation in the house!) in hot oil until brown. Peel, mince and crush garlic. Add to skillet when the chiles begin to turn color; do not allow garlic to brown. Add quartered onions, cooking only until slightly translucent (this takes the "bite" off).
Put all ingredients into a food processor, blender or Vitamix machine and process briefly (only a few seconds) until a chunky puree is obtained.

Two Pepper Salsa: Green or red bell peppers, quartered and seeded, may be added when all ingredients are transferred to food processor, if desired.

Roast Garlic Chile Salsa: To make a roast garlic version, dip an entire head of unpeeled garlic in olive oil and wrap it in aluminum foil. Roast in oven for 40 minutes at 350F. Alternatively, peel about 20 cloves of garlic, then saute them in 1/4" olive oil in a heavy bottom pan, turning them over as they take on a toasted color; crush them flat when they are tender and saute a minute more before transferring to blender with other ingredients.

1 can of S&W petite-cut tomatoes 28oz.
