Salsa

List of Ingredients
- 16 oz. (I think-just one of the big ones) can of crushed tomatoes
- 1/2 white onion
- 1 handful of jalapeno peppers
- 1 handful of serrano peppers (optional)
- 1 bunch cilantro
- 1 bud of garlic
- salt
- coarse grind black pepper
- 1 8oz. (give or take) can of Ro-tel extra hot diced tomatoes and peppers
Instructions
- This will make and entire blender or food processor of salsa.
- I usually have a few bowls that I can place some of the ingredients in until I am ready to dump them in the blender/processor.
- Cut the onion into slices that your blender can handle.
- I pull off just the leaves of the cilantro and discard the stems.
- Cut the ends off of the peppers and you may want to cut them in half (whatever your blender can handle). I leave in the seeds to make it hotter.
- Go ahead and bust all of the cloves out of the garlic bud.
- It's go time!
- First put the crushed tomatoes in the blender. (This seems to work best for me).
- Then put the onions and cilantro in. (I usually rev up the blender now, just so everything isn't in there at once.)
- Now put in the peppers and Ro-tel. (Blend again). rotel can be optional if you think it will be too hot.
- Now pour some salt and pepper on top to taste. I never measured, but I usually nearly cover the top with salt/not quite so much with the pepper.
- Blend until salt and pepper mixed in well.
- That's it! You will want to experiment until you get it the way YOU like it, but this is the way I like it. (Of course Chile Piquins would be preferable to both jalapenos and serranos, but I do not have access to those unlike some people).
