| Carrot guava salsa |
This is a salsa I created for a potluck this week. I intended it for dipping tortilla chips, etc... But I guess you can also use it as glazing for broiling, roasting or grilling chicken, ham or pork, (but you'll have to thin it out a bit). I bet a spoonful of this stuff could also jazz up your potato soup, corn chowder, bean & ham soup, etc...
Chop carrots. Combine in a blender or food processor with guava nectar, garlic, habaneros, tomato, lime juice, cumin powder, balsamic vinegar, dried fruit and 1 tbsp of cilantro. Blend for 2 minutes or until mixture has the consistency of a paste. Add chopped onions and rest of cilantro. Let sit in refrigerator for at least 1 hour. Eat as dipping salsa with tortilla chips or pita bread (surprisingly, low-fat saltines, wheat thins and triscuits also work with this salsa).

| Chef Bayo's Tanzanian Green Tomato Chutney |
1. Place the green tomatoes, onions, and papayas in a large heavy pot. Add the sugar, vinegar, salt, and spices. Stir well.
2. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce the heat slightly, and simmer uncovered until the mixture is thick, about 1 hour. Add peppers at the end.
3. Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate covered until ready to use. The chutney will thicken slightly as it chills. If you prefer a less
liquidy chutney, drain a bit off.
Makes 4 cups
note: I poured the warm mixture into hot jars and sealed them up to give as gifts. I guess if you use different peppers you may want to cook them into the mix sooner.

INSTRUCTIONS:
Char the tomatillos over a gas burner just until slightly blackened. Do not soften. I use a little grill, called the
Asador, that fits over a burner. Set tomatillos aside.
Soften chiles in boiling water for 20 minutes. (Or, cover the dried chiles with water, cover with plastic wrap, and microwave at high
for 3 minutes.) Drain the chiles and remove the seeds from the softened chiles.
Place the tomatillos, chipotles, garlic, salt and lime juice in a food processor or blender, and puree into a smooth sauce.

| Cilantro Chutney / Salsa |
For those of you interested in Indian foods I'm posting here a chutney (Indian definition -more like a salsa than what occidental's call chutney) that is based on chutney - The stuff is very cilantro-sweet-hot. With Indian food, rice, chile-pickles... is excellent.
Toss it in processor and grind away - stop short of making a paste - taste, adjust chiles, sugar... to taste - leave some texture.
Some substitutions - In a pinch I've substituted frozen limeade concentrate straight out of the can for the lime juice and some of the sugar.
The stuff keeps pretty well in the coolerator, the color deteriorates with time from bright green to camouflage. Eventually, in about two weeks, some blue and pink fuzz will grow on the top - at this point it is gone.

| Dave W's Salsa (Thanks to Julia) |
Here's my favourite salsa recipe. Quick to make, and delicious. As with
most recipes of this type, the quantities are variable according to
personal taste, but this is what I like...
Drain a little of the juice out of the tomatoes (otherwise it gets a
little too runny), and then mix all of the ingredients together. The
number of chiles depends very much on personal taste, and on the type
available (here in the UK we get a much more limited range on sale), but
I'm sure you can all figure out just how hot you want to make it.
If possible, leave it to stand for at least half an hour before eating, or
even overnight, but I can rarely wait that long before getting the munchies.
How to eat: well, anyway you like. My favourite is to make a big bowl of
salsa, take a big bag of tortilla chips, and then to while away the
evening on the sofa dunking one into the other.

INSTRUCTIONS:
Rinse and stem the chiles, then place in a large pot. Add the tomatoes, onion, garlic, oregano, water and salt. Bring to a simmer, then reduce
heat to very, very low. Simmer for 30 minutes. Place half of the solid ingredients in a blender. Add
about 1 cup of the liquid (do not use all of the liquid or the sauce will be too thin). Process until the ingredients are pureed.
Push the puree through a fine sieve into a large saucepan. Use a spatula to scrape off all bits of puree from the bottom of the sieve. Repeat with the remaining solids and 1 more cup or so of the liquid.
Simmer the sauce for about 10 minutes, tasting for seasoning.
Add the half-and-half and continue to simmer for 5 minutes, until the sauce smooths out and the flavors come together.
Yields about 1 quart salsa.

| Fire-Roasted Tomato Chipotle Salsa |
Blacken 2 pounds of Roma tomatoes (barbecue them until their skins blister and blacken in places and they start bubbling, or put them directly on a gas burner, one to a burner, and turn them with tongs).
Roast a head of garlic (dribble some olive oil over it, wrap it in a double thickness of foil, and throw it on the same barbecue, or dry-roast cloves in a frying pan until soft).
Put half the tomatoes, half an onion chopped and browned in olive oil, about half of the garlic (spread the other half on French bread and eat), one to four chipotle chiles in adobo (look in any Latin store or gourmet shop) and a handful of washed cilantro into a food processor and pulse until finely chopped but not pureed.
Peel the remaining tomatoes, seed them as best you can, chop coarsely, and mix into the other mixture along with a good dose of fragrant olive oil (say 1/4 cup), salt to taste, a teaspoon of sugar, and a quarter-cup of red wine vinegar. I can eat a bowlful of this stuff with a spoon. So can my younger child, though the chipotle starts to get to the tot after a while.

| Hot Salsa |
Poke one or two holes in each chile and broil ("roast") them. Put the tomatillos on the same pan and broil until the paper-like covering is browned and the tomatillos are limp. Set aside. Put the chiles into a heavy freezer plastic bag, close it and steam the chiles. When steamed open the bag, peel the chiles. Remove their stems and chop. Chop the tomatillos, too.
Chop the onion and sauté in vegetable oil. Mince onion and add. Cook until onion is browned.Add the chiles and tomatillos and stir-fry for just a second. Spoon all into a small baking dish. Top with grated cheese. Bake in a 375 degree oven for 15 minutes or until cheese is melted and toasted.
*When this salsa was young, tomatoes still were acidic. Now tomatoes are bland. The acid in the tomatoes is used to help keep the chile safe despite sitting around in hot weather. That's why vinegar, lime or lemon juice is added to all salsas. Before we learned this, families died of food poisoning from eating home prepared tomatoes and chile salsas.

Combine all ingredients and simmer for about 20 minutes. In each pint jar put 1/4 -1/2 tsp. salt, depending on taste (or none at all), and 1 Tbsp. bottled lemon juice. Ladle in salsa, using slotted spoon if it is too juicy. (Save juice for another recipe.) Place lids on and rings. Process in boiling water bath for 35 minutes.
This may not be the "approved method" but it keeps fine for me. Most recipes call for lots of vinegar, but they taste terrible! I think this makes 6 jars, but have an extra jar handy if possible, or refrigerate leftover salsa and use within a week or so.

Real Mexican "Pico de Gallo" is a very simple recipe using ground dried chiles as a condiment with various fruits.
Mix the jicama and oranges together, and season with salt and cayenne to taste.
* Very tart cooking apples may be substituted for the jicama, although the results may be less than perfect,
since jicama has a unique flavor that is not easily duplicated.
I tried this recipe, substituting Jim Campbell's apple smoked habinero
powder for cayenne and it tasted great. (Usual disclaimers apply) ;{)

| Pico De Gallo With Chipotle |
The fajita favorite-Pico de Gallo-is a highly flavored salsa. Literally translated, Pico de Gallo means tip of the cock’s comb. And, if you are sensitive to chile heat, it just might make you jump higher than the tip of the cock’s comb...which is how it was so named. The Aztec’s created the banana leaf smoked red ripe jalepenos that we know today as chipotles. The brown, wrinkled dried ones yield the very most flavor-much better than the canned ones. The reddish mora style chipotles are mechanically dried and are far less flavorful. This salsa is wonderful on most any highly flavored smoked or grilled dish.
Yield: 3 cups, or 6 to 8 servings
1.Place the chipotles in a medium-sized glass bowl (for the microwave) or small pan (for top of the range) and add the water and vinegar. Cover and simmer to soften the chiles-5 minutes in the microwave or about 30 minutes on top of the range. When done, uncover and allow to cool.
2.In the meantime, prepare all the remaining ingredients and combine together, except for the cilantro.
3.Finely mince the chiles, peel and all, and stir in, adding some juice as needed to make a salsa of the desired consistency.
4.Add the cilantro.

| Roasted Tomatillo-Serrano Salsa |
Lay tomatillos on baking sheet and place 4 inches below very hot broiler. When tomatillos blister, blacken and soften on one side, about 5 minutes, turn the tomatillos over and roast the other side. (turning is easily done with a spatula).
Roast chiles and garlic on ungrease griddle or in heavy skillet over medium heat, turning occasionally, until blackened in spots and soft, 5 to 10 minutes for the chiles, and 15 minutes for the garlic. Cool, then pull the stems from the chiles and peel the garlic.
Scrape the roasted tomatillos (and any juices that have accumulated) into a food processor or blender along with the roasted chiles & garlic. Pulse the machine until the mixture becomes a coarse puree.
Scrape the salsa into a serving bowl, then stir in 1/4 to 1/2 cup of water, depending on the desired consistency.
Scoop the onion into a strainer and rinse in cold water. Shake off the excess water and stir into the salsa, along with cilantro. Taste and season with salt and sugar. Makes 2.5 cups.

| My Salsa de Chile Verde |
I usually make this recipe in huge quantities but for the group I have reduced the recipe until it will only make salsa for 100 to 125 people. I make several other salsas but like this best of all. It can be canned, by spooning the salsa into sterile jars and processing the jars in a hot water bath.
Remove the stems from the chiles and either hand chop or put the chiles into a processor and chop them coarsely. Put these into a large bowl. Add any chile juice that may remain in the bag. Put the jalapenos into a small microwave bowl and microwave for 2 minutes. Remove stems and chop these up in the processor. Wash and dry processor. Turn on and drop in the garlic cloves one at a time. When all the garlic is added and minced, spoon it into the bowl with the chile. Mince the cilantro by hand and add to the bowl. Add the oregano, vinegar and black pepper. Let the salsa rest for 30 minutes so that the flavors can blend. Add salt if necessary; it usually isn't, especially since most chiles and garlic are grown in saline soil.

| Salsa For Canning (Judy Howle) |
Sterilize about 6 pint jars and keep hot until ready to use. Lids, funnel, ladle, spoons should also be sterilized.
Combine all ingredients and simmer for about 20 minutes. In each pint jar put 1/4 -1/2 tsp. salt, depending on taste (or none at all), and 1 Tbsp.
bottled lemon juice. Ladle in salsa, using slotted spoon if it is too juicy. (Save juice for another recipe.) Place lids on and rings. Process
in boiling water bath for 35 minutes.
This may not be the "approved method" but it keeps fine for me. Most recipes call for lots of vinegar, but they taste terrible! I think this
makes 6 jars, but have an extra jar handy if possible, or refrigerate leftover salsa and use within a week or so.

A nice mellow salsa. Mellow being non-Habanero. Even my wife liked this one,who is not that keen on my incendiary tastes.Come on everyone put away those bottles of commercial salsas and hot sauces. A little effort goes a long way. Fresh is better.

about half an hour if you can,for flavors to blend.Enjoy!

| Salsa Picante (Hot Aji Salsa) |
Saute the chiles, onion and garlic in a tablespoon of the oil until soft. Place in a blender or food processor along with the peanuts, crackers, cheese, milk and cilantro and puree until smooth. Add the lemon juice and, with the machine running, add the oil a little at a time until the sauce is the desired consistency. Heat before serving, and store any extra in the refrigerator.
Note: Using saltine crackers to thicken a sauce is unusual but not uncommon in Peru. This all-purpose sauce can be served with potatoes, french fries, corn chips, fried foods, seafood, steaks or anything else imaginable. The more you add, the hotter it gets and the BETTER it tastes!

| Skillet Salsa |
Heat a heavy (preferably cast iron) skillet roast some tomatoes, an onion, some garlic cloves and your chiles until they are black all over, or nearly so. Let the veggies cool and plop them into a food processor along with some salt and some coarsley-chopped cilantro. Pulse until the mixture is the consistency you like. I like to process the chiles first to be sure they're well chopped before adding the other veggies -- the other things go faster than the chiles do.
If you like a somewhat tart salsa, cook some tomatillos (after removing the husk) and some chiles in boiling water for about five minutes until the
tomatillos are soft. When cool, process these along with some onion and garlic (roasted or not, your choice), and some salt and cilantro. Again, if
you do the chiles first they'll be nicely chopped.
Both will last a few days in the fridge. I guess, anyway. Around here they don't get the chance.

| Smoky Garlic Salsa |
I just finished canning 8 qts of salsa that my son and I think is about the best we've ever had. I also smoke my peppers over apple wood on the grill. I use some non-hot peppers so I get enough volume of smoky pepper flavor to really taste the smoke.
Chop and dice everything to your desired consistancy. I use a "Little Oscar" for all the herbs and garlic. I use it for portions of other things too as long as I feel I have enough things diced so that the salsa comes out convincingly chunky. If the salsa isn't hot enough for your taste add peppers until you run out or you can always add a dash or two of some powdered cayenne. Don't simmer for more than about 10 min or you'll start losing the chunkiness of all your hard slicing and dicing work. Remember too, if you are going to can it, it gets cooked for another 15 min in the hot water bath. This is an all day project so make sure you have a lot of time or a lot of good help.

Mix all the ingredients together and let stand at room temperature for at least an hour to blend the flavors.
There are many variations of this basic salsa from the Southwest to the tip of South America. It is called a "cold sauce" because it isn't cooked. The important point in making this salsa is to make sure that all the ingredients are chopped very fine. Serve it as a dip with tortilla chips, or with tacos, burritos, fajitas or grilled meats.

The yellow tomatoes have a thicker matrix that tends to suspend the habaneros quite well. And if you have all the colors correct, its
hard for unsuspecting guests to fish out the hot pepper Note:golden cayenne, jaloro (yellow jalapeno), aji amarillo, Bulgarian carrot (not exactly yellow, but another nice orange option),
Santa Fe Grande (yellow hot), Greenleaf tabascos (before they turn color).
By the way, the golden cayennes and Bulgarian carrots have made a nice addition to my ristra (which also includes ancho mulatos, pasillas,
chocolate congos and a few red-color chiles).

Add the onions and saute until softened. Add the tomatoes, garlic, vinegar, salt, bay leaf and chile. Simmer for 10 minutes. Yields 2 cups.
Note: If you want a hotter salsa, cut the chile in half and use 1 or both halves. (If you are using a habanero chile, stand back -- this will add a lot more heat!)
