ROASTED TOMATILLO-POBLANO-AVOCADO SALSA



Roasted Tomatillo-Poblano-Avocado Salsa image

One of my favorite new cookbooks of this season is "A Mouthful of Stars" (Andrews McMeel), by Kim Sunée. The book is a memoir, travelogue and cookbook all rolled into one, written by an author who earlier published another compelling memoir with recipes, "Trail of Crumbs." Kim is a poetic world traveler who loves many cuisines. She is a big fan of taco trucks and loves salsa, the spicier the better. This salsa is based on her recipe for roasted tomatillo-poblano salsa. I love its balance of char, heat, acid and creamy. I'm a moderate when it comes to heat, but you can make this hotter by adding more chiles.

2 garlic cloves, peeled
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt to taste

Tips:

  • Choose ripe poblano peppers. Ripe poblanos have a deep, dark green color and are slightly soft to the touch. Avoid peppers that are bruised or have blemishes.
  • Roast the poblano peppers until the skin is blistered and charred. This will help to bring out the pepper's flavor and make it easier to peel.
  • Remove the skins from the poblano peppers while they are still hot. This will help to prevent the skins from sticking to the peppers.
  • Use a variety of capers. There are many different types of capers available, so feel free to experiment to find the ones that you like best. Some popular varieties include nonpareil capers, surfines capers, and grissa capers.
  • Add other ingredients to taste. This salsa is very versatile, so feel free to add other ingredients to taste. Some popular additions include chopped cilantro, diced onion, minced garlic, and a squeeze of lime juice.

Conclusion:

This roasted poblano and caper salsa is a delicious and easy-to-make salsa that is perfect for any occasion. It is smoky, tangy, and slightly spicy, and it pairs well with a variety of foods. Whether you are serving it with chips, tacos, or burritos, this salsa is sure to be a hit.
