Authentic Mexican Basic Tomato Salsa Recipe










Authentic Mexican Basic Tomato Salsa Recipe

A great salsa recipe to try !
Salsa Recipe INGREDIENTS
* avocados
* 2 large, red ripe tomatoes, peeled and seeded
* 1 garlic clove peeled
* 1 Anaheim green chili, seeded and cut into thirds
* 3 green onions, cleaned and cut into 1 inch pieces
* 4 oz canned chopped green chilies
* 1 to 3 whole jalapeños, deveined and seeded
* 1/4 cup fresh Cilantro, chopped
* 1 teaspoon olive oil
* 1 Tablespoon lime juice
* salt and pepper to taste
* ¼ cup ice water

Salsa Recipes INSTRUCTIONS

This authentic Mexican tomato salsa recipe is very easy to make. It sure is easier and a heck of a lot quicker to reach for a blender, but we love the chunky, rustic texture of salsas made in a molcajete, or traditional Mexican mortar. And spices ground against the rough black basalt give off truly potent aromas - which make our meals all the more flavorful.

Char the tomatoes over a gas grill or under the flame of a hot broiler for a few seconds, turning them until the peel blisters. Slip off the peel, and the flesh will still be firm. Remove the green stem core and cut the tomatoes in half vertically. Use a teaspoon to scoop out the seeds.

In the food processor, turn the motor on chop first and drop in the garlic, cilantro, green onions and jalapeños into the bowl of the food processor to chop for just a few seconds.

Turn off the motor and scrap down the sides of the bowl using a rubber spatula.

Add all the remaining ingredients from the tomato salsa recipe, tomatoes, Anaheim chili, the chopped green chilies, olive oil and lime juice . Process with brief pulses to reach the desired texture, somewhere between a chow-chow relish and a textured puree.

You want to see bits of all the vegetables through out the salsa.
Salt and pepper to taste.
Pour into a serving bowl and allow to season for approximately one hour.
Just before serving mix in the 1/4 cup of ice water to cool the salsa.
Serve with tortilla chips, enhance your favorite chicken recipes, fish, barbecue beef, or with beans wrapped in a tortilla.

Make this great tomato salsa recipe then blend with mashed Avocado to make a fantastic guacamole.

This healthy homemade tomato salsa recipe is great with everything. The salsa recipe is ready to serve...nice ! Enjoy it !

Anaheim Chile Salsa Verde

Anaheim Chile Salsa Verde
A nice salsa recipe to try !
INGREDIENTS

* 6 fresh green Anaheim chiles (about ¾ pound)
* ¾ pound fresh tomatillos or 1-¼ cups drained canned tomatillos (about half of a 28-ounce can)
* 1 cup chicken broth
* 2 garlic cloves
* 1 cup packed fresh cilantro sprigs

INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat broiler. Arrange chiles on rack of a broiler pan and broil about 2 inches from heat, turning them frequently, until skins are blistered and charred, 8 to 12 minutes. (Alternatively, if using a gas stove, lay chiles on their sides on racks of burners and turn flames on high. Char chiles, turning them with tongs, until skins are blackened, 3 to 6 minutes.) Transfer chiles to a bowl and let stand, covered, until cool enough to handle.

Wearing rubber gloves, peel chiles. Cut off tops and discard seeds and ribs.

Remove husks from fresh tomatillos and rinse tomatillos under warm water to remove stickiness. In a saucepan, simmer tomatillos, broth, and garlic until tomatillos are tender, about 10 minutes if using fresh tomatillos and about 5 minutes if using canned. Add chiles to tomatillo mixture.

Cool salsa slightly and in a blender pulse until coarsely chopped (use caution when blending hot liquids). Salsa may be made up to this point 2 days ahead and cooled, uncovered, before being chilled, covered. Bring salsa to room temperature or reheat before proceeding.

Just before serving, in blender pulse salsa with cilantro until cilantro is finely chopped (use caution when blending if salsa is heated) and season with salt. The salsa recipe is ready ..enjoy it !

CHILE SALSA (WITH VARIATIONS)

CHILE SALSA RECIPES

INGREDIENTS
  • 6 chiles de arbol
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

  • 1/4 cup onion, peeled and quartered
  • 2 tablespoons tomato juice or V8
  • 3 cloves garlic, peeled
  • 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
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. The salsa recipe is ready...enjoy it ! Nice !
