Best Salsa Kims Recipes

BEST DAMN ROASTED SALSA

Steps:

• Clean veggies and remove stems. Slice onion in half. Keep skin on garlic. Heat broiler on high, with rack in top position. Place tomatoes, jalapenos, onion and garlic in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet that is covered with foil.
• Broil until vegetables are blistered and slightly softened, rotating sheet and flipping vegetables frequently, 6 to 8 minutes (garlic may need to be removed earlier, if it is browning too quickly).
• Discard garlic skins and add all ingredients to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse about 3-4 times and until all ingredients are combined and chopped. Roasted salsa is more liquidy than regular salsa.
• Taste the salsa and add more cumin and/or salt as desired.
• Transfer to a bowl and enjoy with tortilla chips! Also, great served over eggs, tacos and more.
• I prefer to refrigerate salsa for 1 day prior to serving to allow the flavors to marry and meld. Salsa will keep for about 1 week in an airtight container or jar in the fridge.

BEST DAMN SALSA EVER!

Steps:

• Add all ingredients to the bowl of a food processor. I like to add in the jalapeños, onion and garlic first and then the cilantro and tomatoes, so the tomatoes do not get too liquid-y. Pulse about 10 or so times and until all ingredients are combined and diced, but be sure to stop before the salsa becomes too watery. However, you can pulse longer if you do like your salsa with more liquid.
• Taste the salsa and add more ingredients as desired. I would advise stirring in the extra ingredients, not pulsing in the food processor. The salsa will become too watery, quickly.
• Transfer to a bowl and enjoy!
• I prefer to refrigerate salsa for 1 day prior to serving to allow the flavors to intensify. Salsa will keep for about 1 week in an airtight container or jar in the fridge; however, it's never lasted that long in this household.

KIM'S FLAMING HOT SALSA

Steps:

JAMES KIM'S SALSA

Steps:

• 1. Bring 2C water to boil in microwave. Place serrano peppers in hot water for 30 seconds. Discard water. Cut away the stems of the peppers and discard.
• 2. Drain whole peeled tomatoes. Pull Cilantro leaves off their stems and use only the leaves.
• 3. Place all ingredients in the food processor. Mix together until liquified.
• 4. Transfer to storage container and refrigerate overnight. The next day it's ready to eat.
• 5. Heat can be controlled by removing seeds and membranes from peppers. Serranos can vary in heat, so I sometimes add 1 jalepeno pepper for good measure.
