ROASTED JALAPEñO-TOMATO SALSA WITH FRESH CILANTRO



Roasted Jalapeño-Tomato Salsa with Fresh Cilantro image

Provided by Rick Bayless

Categories     Condiment/Spread     Garlic     Herb     Pepper     Tomato     Roast     Fall     Jalapeño

Yield Makes 2 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 pounds ripe tomatoes (about 10 medium), preferably plum
2 to 3 fresh jalapeño chiles (1 to 1 1/2 ounces), stemmed
Half of a small white onion (2 ounces), sliced 1/4 inch thick
4 garlic cloves, peeled
1/4 cup water
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro, loosely packed
1 generous teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons cider vinegar

Steps:

  • 1. Heat the broiler. Lay the whole tomatoes and jalapeños out on a broiler pan or baking sheet. Set the pan 4 inches below the broiler and broil for about 6 minutes, until darkly roasted - even blackened in spots - on one side (the tomato skins will split and curl in places). With a pair of tongs, flip over the tomatoes and chiles and roast the other side for another 6 minutes or so. The goal is not simply to char the tomatoes and chiles, but to cook them through while developing nice, roasty flavors. Set aside to cool.
  • 2. Turn the oven down to 425 degrees. Separate the onions into rings. On a similar pan or baking sheet, combine the onion and garlic. Roast in the oven, stirring carefully every couple of minutes, until the onions are beautifully browned and wilted (even have a touch of char on some of the edges) and the garlic is soft and browned in spots, about 15 minutes total. Cool to room temperature.
  • 3. For a little less rustic texture or if you're canning the salsa, pull off the peels from the cooled tomatoes and cut out the "cores" where the stems were attached, working over your baking sheet so as not to waste any juices. In a food processor, pulse the jalapeños (no need to peel or seed them) with the onion and garlic until moderately finely chopped, scraping everything down with a spatula as needed to keep it all moving around. Scoop into a big bowl. Without washing the processor, coarsely puree the tomatoes - with all that juice that has accumulated around them - and add them to the bowl. Stir in enough water to give the salsa an easily spoonable consistency. Stir in the cilantro.
  • 4. Taste and season with salt and vinegar, remembering that this condiment should be a little fiesty in its seasoning. If you're planning to use your salsa right away, simply pour it into a bowl and it's ready, or refrigerate it covered and use within 5 days.

Tips:

  • Choose the right tomatoes: Roma tomatoes are the best choice for salsa because they are meaty and have fewer seeds. If you can't find Roma tomatoes, you can use any other type of tomato, but you may need to remove the seeds and dice them more finely.
  • Roast the tomatoes and jalapeños: Roasting the tomatoes and jalapeños brings out their natural sweetness and flavor. You can roast them in the oven or on a grill.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as cilantro and parsley, add a lot of flavor to salsa. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but they will not be as flavorful.
  • Don't overcook the salsa: Salsa should be cooked just until the tomatoes and jalapeños are soft. If you overcook it, the salsa will lose its fresh flavor.
  • Serve salsa immediately or store it in the refrigerator for later: Salsa is best served immediately, but it can also be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. You can also freeze salsa for up to 3 months.

Conclusion:

Roasted Jalapeno and Tomato Salsa is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used to add flavor to a variety of dishes. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it mild or spicy, this salsa is sure to please everyone at your next party or gathering.
