Ingredients

2 fresh poblano chiles, stemmed, seeded, and chopped
2 fresh jalapeno chilies, stemmed but chopped with seeds
1 fresh serrano chili, stemmed but chopped with seeds
2 large ripe Hass avocadoes, peeled and pitted
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro, both leaves and stems included

This salsa is a delicate green and smooth, but it is Hot! Adjust types and amounts of hot peppers, to taste.

Tips:

Choose ripe, flavorful poblano peppers: Look for peppers that are deep green and smooth, with no blemishes or wrinkles.
Roast the poblano peppers properly: Roasting brings out the smoky, slightly sweet flavor of the peppers. Make sure to roast them until the skin is charred and blistered.
Remove the seeds and veins from the peppers: The seeds and veins can be bitter, so it's best to remove them before blending the salsa.
Use a variety of tomatoes: This recipe calls for a combination of Roma and cherry tomatoes. Roma tomatoes are meaty and flavorful, while cherry tomatoes add a touch of sweetness.
Add some heat with jalapeño peppers: If you like your salsa spicy, add a jalapeño pepper or two. Be sure to remove the seeds and veins before adding the pepper to the salsa.
Season the salsa to taste: Add salt, pepper, and lime juice to taste. You can also add a pinch of cumin or coriander for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

This smooth poblano salsa is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used on tacos, burritos, nachos, or as a dip for chips. It's also a great way to use up leftover poblano peppers. With its smoky, slightly sweet flavor, this salsa is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
