SALSA IN SPANISH RECIPES

Steps:

• Pull the husks from the tomatillos and wash them under cool water until they no longer feel sticky. Cut them into quarters and put them into the work bowl of a food processor. Add the onion and garlic and process until smooth. Add the cilantro, jalapeno and lime juice and process until the jalapeno is finely chopped.
• Scrape the mixture into a small saucepan. Season lightly with salt and bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid is boiled off and the salsa looks relish-y, about 15 minutes. Cool before using. The sauce can be refrigerated for up to 1 week. If refrigerated, you may want to add a little salt and/or lime juice to the salsa before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. On a large baking sheet, toss jalapeños, cherry tomatoes, and onion together with oil. Season with ½ teaspoon salt and pepper. Roast until slightly charred, 20 minutes.  In a food processor, add roasted vegetables, quartered tomatoes, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, cumin, and a pinch of red pepper flakes. Season with remaining 1 1/4 teaspoons salt and pepper, then pulse a few times until mostly blended and slightly chunky.
