Salsa!

Posted by Erin Wilburn / 1 comment » / appetizers, csa


We’ve gotten a lot of tomatoes & peppers in our CSA, and a coworker brought in some jalapenos & habaneros so I decided it was time for me to make salsa! Usually my salsa is very chunky, and I wanted to try something different. The producer I was working with that day is from Texas & married a hispanic man. She’s used to hot & spicy peppers, and recommended roasting the habaneros to cut down on the heat. I cut the tomatoes & jalepenos, habaneros, and red & green peppers in half, removed the seeds & the white from the hot peppers, and roasted them. Then I removed the skin, cut them into pieces & pulsed them in my Magic Bullet Blender until smooth. I reserved some pieces to add to the salsa to still have a little chunk. I also added in chopped onion, cilantro, a little salt & lime. It was SO so SO so good! I didn’t really follow a recipe, just used what I had.



This one was made a little chunkier and also with some yellow tomato.
