Salsa/Pic

[Roxy15]

I asked someone on a recipe site that I belong to, how they made this salsa..this is their reply.

 

Salsa:

 

 Handful of chile de Arbol, stemmed and toasted for a minute in a pan.  

 

Place in a bowl and add hot water to rehydrate, cover to soften in 15 minutes. 

 

Roast, toast in pan or add fresh to blender 2 tomatoes, 1/2 onion and the garlic. Remove chile from water and add the tomatoes, onions, garlic, and 1/2 cup or more tap water to blender and purée.  

(You can skip this step, but I added a small amount of oil to a pan and added in my puréed mixture and cooked for 5 minutes).  

 

Season with salt and thin with water to your desired consistency for chips or tacos, etc.  I like mine cool. 

Optional cilantro-(I didn’t add it)-and lime, but I’d save the lime for a tequila shooter!
