Serious Salsa: (Not Exactly) My Uncle's Salsa

Fry in oil or grill (until slightly blackened) 4 roma tomatoes, 2-4 jalapeno or serrano chiles depending upon your desire for heat, and one clove of garlic. The garlic clove can be cooked in skin by grilling the clove with the vegetables or frying. The above cooked ingredients can be mashed by hand with a mortar/pestle or blended after salting to taste (probably 1tsp) and adding one crispy bacon. I small handful of cilantro is chopped and added to the salsa. You can chopped fresh or cooked onion depending on your taste (I prefer without). This is an EXCELLENT and easy mexican salsa (ranchera) from a Mexican.

the recipe above is a pretty good basic salsa to jump off into variations from. one of mine is similar but use canned crushed tomatoes, double the onion and garlic and serranos (don't bother with jalapenos). skip the chile powder and add a pinch of sea salt. and definitely skip the sugar. also, try it with and without the lime juice - both ways are good. add a couple extra serranos to "hot" it up some if that's your taste (I usually use 7 or 8). I also like to add about 1/2 of a poblano chile for it's rich flavour. I much prefer the food processor over the blender tho' both will work well.

this looks so delicious. I was surprised though to see that you used canned tomatoes instead of fresh. I'm used to seeing with very chunky salsa with marinated fresh tomatoes or more of the spicy pureed version liked you image above. in your experience, do most salsas that look like this use canned tomatoes?

looks great either way!!

this salsa is amazing.

the romas can be peeled and not cooked. I did it this way the first time. I chowed it pretty fast, used it in some pork tacos. it was amazing.

we did it with a can of tomatoes the second time. i'd suggest letting it sit overnight if you use the can to let the flavors combine more (or it's a bit canned tomato tasting).

no longer am I buying salsa from the grocery store.
