SALSA

SALSA, originally uploaded by moreno.alejandrohina.

I took a traditional Mexican cooking class last summer at our local branch, and we learned to make many recipes. At our house, we are connoisseurs of salsa. It is almost in a separate food group for us, so when I tasted this version of salsa, that is soooo easy, I immediately took it home to let my youngest son try it. He loved it! I had forgotten about this recipe until I saw it on another cooking show and saw the guest making it. I made this for Easter weekend and it was consumed hungrily by my two college sons. Here is the recipe for our house salsa:

One tomato
half an onion
two jalapenos (depending on how hot you like your salsa, play with the ratios)

roast the jalapenos and remove the skin and seeds

boil the peeled onion with the tomato for 10 - 15 minutes until soft

Put all of the ingredients in a blender and add the liquid from the tomato and onions a little at a time until you like the consistency. add salt to taste.

Its that simple. yumm
