I have a favorite Mexican restaurant here that I like especially for their salsa. I commented to one of the waitresses one time that I would love to have the recipe to their salsa and she just up and gave it to me and I've been in 7th heaven since.

Categories     Sauces

Time 10m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 jalapenos
3 habaneros
1 small onion
2 garlic cloves
2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
1 teaspoon cumin seed
1/4 teaspoon oregano, to taste
1 pinch thyme, to taste
salt and pepper
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup water

Steps:

  • Put peppers, onion, garlic, cilantro and cumin in a food processor, and process until finely minced, but not a paste.
  • Or, if you're mincing the peppers by hand-be SURE to wear rubber gloves, as the oil from the peppers is very irritating to skin and eyes.
  • Add seasonings, vinegar, olive oil and water and mix well.
  • Store in a glass container with a tight fitting lid (I use the larger size of baby food jars).
  • Stores well in the refrigerator for a couple of days.
  • Serve on chips, eggs, grilled chicken, in burritos, on tacos, mixed into rice or beans, anything you can think of!

Tips:

  • Use gloves when handling hot peppers: Capsaicin, the compound that gives peppers their heat, can irritate the skin and eyes. Wear gloves to protect your hands when cutting or handling hot peppers.
  • Remove the seeds and ribs from the peppers: The seeds and ribs of the peppers contain the most heat. Removing them will help to reduce the heat of the salsa.
  • Use a food processor or blender: A food processor or blender will help to create a smooth and even salsa. If you do not have a food processor or blender, you can chop the ingredients by hand, but it will take longer.
  • Add some sweetness to the salsa: The sweetness of tomatoes, carrots, or pineapple can help to balance out the heat of the peppers. You can also add a teaspoon of sugar or honey.
  • Taste the salsa as you go: The heat of the salsa can vary depending on the type of peppers you use and how much of them you add. Taste the salsa as you go and adjust the ingredients to your liking.

Conclusion:

This extremely hot salsa recipe is not for the faint of heart. It is a fiery and flavorful salsa that will add a kick to any dish. If you are looking for a salsa that will bring the heat, this is the recipe for you. Just be sure to handle the peppers with care and adjust the ingredients to your liking.
