ROASTED CHIPOTLE SALSA
Dry-roasting vegetables on a flat, heavy pan called a comal tames the sharper flavors and adds a smoky dimension (you can also use a heavy frying pan). Chipotle chiles -- canned smoked jalapenos -- add even further depth of flavor. This salsa is a great alternative for dipping chips or garnishing tacos, tamales or enchiladas.

Steps:
- Place a comal or a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat; do not oil. Place garlic, onion, and tomato (all with their skins) in pan and roast, turning, as needed, with tongs, until blistered and charred all over. Let vegetables cool slightly, then peel off skins.
- In a blender, combine vegetables with chipotle chile and cilantro leaves. Whirl until coarsely pureed. (If using a mortar and pestle, finely chop cilantro leaves with cooked, peeled onion and garlic. Mash tomatoes and chipotle in mortar, then stir in chopped vegetables and cilantro). Squeeze lime juice into salsa, then stir in oil. Taste, season with salt, and serve. Can be made ahead, covered, and refrigerated up to 3 days.
RED-RIBBON ROASTED SALSA
This recipe originated from a recipe that was supposed to duplicate that of my favorite Mexican restaurant. I've heavily modified the original recipe and like this variation SO much more! It's relatively easy. This makes a medium-hot salsa. I've named it 'Red-Ribbon' because it took second place at my company salsa competition last Cinco de Mayo (lost first in a tie-breaker!).

- Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.

- Refrigerate until flavors have blended, at least 2 hours to overnight.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use ripe, flavorful tomatoes. Roma tomatoes are a good choice because they have a low water content and a concentrated flavor.
- Roast the red peppers before adding them to the salsa. Roasting brings out their sweetness and smokiness.
- Use a good quality chipotle pepper in adobo sauce. The chipotle peppers add a smoky, spicy flavor to the salsa.
- Add some fresh cilantro to the salsa just before serving. Cilantro adds a bright, citrusy flavor that complements the other ingredients well.
- Serve the salsa with tortilla chips, tacos, burritos, or any other Mexican dish.
