Roasted Jalapeno Salsa

With this cold weather, nothing sounds better than a good salsa. This weekend I make smoked pork butt tacos and I made this salsa to accompany it. Needless to say it was a hit! This salsa is so easy to make, you will never want to buy it again. The ingredients are inexpensive and it makes a lot.

This salsa is spicy, if you want something mild, I will post later, however this one has a kick!

This salsa would be great on eggs, with beans, with steak, chicken, basically everything.I like to mix it with cottage cheese and eat it with corn chips. I know this sounds funny, most people will only eat cottage cheese with fruit, but trust me, with this salsa, and it is amazing.

I like to char my ingredients, some people like to boil the tomatoes, chiles, and onion. However, the deep caramelized flavor that develops from charring vegetables adds a special and unique touch to this salsa. I hope you make this at home and enjoy it!

Here are the ingredients you will need:

2-4 Tomatoes

1 Bunch of Cilantro

1 White Onion

10 Jalapeno Peppers

2 Serrano Peppers

2-3 cloves of garlic

Salt & Pepper to taste

Here are the steps:

Step 1: Add all of your ingredients to a very hot grill

Step 2: Make sure to turn them a few times in order to get a deep char on all sides:

Step 3: Remove all of the ingredients from the grill and take the stems and stalks off the peppers, onion, and tomatoes:

Step 4: place all of the ingredients in blender (I use a nutribullet) add the cilantro, salt, and pepper and blend until your desired consistency:

Step 5: Once all of the ingredients are well blended, transfer it to a jar (you do not want to use plastic, because you will never get the smell of salsa out of it!). The salsa will stay fine in the fridge for a week, but it will probably not last that long:

Enjoy it! :)
