           Salsa Fresca
           Chipotle Salsa
           Salsa
           Salsa Yucateca
 
  SALSA FRESCA (fresh salsa): 2 large ripe tomatoes, peeled & diced, 1/2
  large sweet onion, diced, 1 or 2 small hot peppers, finely diced
  (serrano, jalapeno, or arbol), juice from 1/2 of a key lime or lime
  or lemon, 1/2 cup diced cilantro, salt to taste. Simply mix all of
  the above together and use as you would any salsa. CHIPOTLE SALSA: 2
  large ripe tomatoes; Simmer in a small amount of water for 3-4
  minutes; peel, and place in a blender or food processor with; 1 or 2
  chile chipotle from a can (these are smoked, pickled jalapenos in a
  vinegar-tomato sauce), add a little of the sauce, too, if you want
  more heat - be careful, these are quite hot! add to tomato and blend
  6-7 seconds. Salt to taste. SALSA: On the open flame of a stove on a
  grill, or on a non-stick griddle on high heat, lightly char: 2 large
  very ripe tomatoes, 2 garlic cloves, 1 or 2 small hot peppers (chile
  verde, jalapeno, serrano, arbol). Let the tomatoes cool a bit and
  peel. Meanwhile, in a molcajete, mash the other ingredients together.
  Add the tomato and mash that, too. You may have to transfer some to a
  bowl. Put it into a small bowl and add 1/2 diced sweet onion, and 1/2
  cup diced cilantro. Salt to taste.  If you don't have a molcajete, or
  mortar & pestle, mash the ingredients with a fork instead. SALSA
  YUCATECA: 1 chile habanero (there is no substitute!), charred as
  above and mashed, the juice from one key lime (or lime), 2 Tbsp olive
  oil, 1 garlic clove, roasted and mashed, salt to taste. Place the
  ingredients in a small dish or bowl & mix together. Try this in
  chicken soup! P.S. When roasting garlic, do it with the peel on.
  Remove after roasting!
