4 Whole, fresh tomatoes
1-2 cloves garlic
Half an onion
4-8 Peppers (Jalapeno, Serrano, Habanero, whatever sounds good)
Salt
Usually I use one or two peppers for every tomato, but you can change it depending on how hot you want it and what kind of pepper you're using. I like to use 3 or 4 Jalapenos and 2 or 3 Serranos.
- Rip the stems off the peppers and cut the stem base out of the tomatoes
- Put the peppers and tomatoes in a pot of water, and place on the stove on High
- Remove from heat after the water starts to boil and the skin starts to fall off the tomatoes
- Peel the skin off the tomatoes (I usually run then under cold water while doing this to keep from burning myself) and put the tomatoes and peppers in the blender
- Add the onion and garlic to the blender along with about half to one cup of water from the pot (amount of water changes the thickness of the salsa)
- Blend everything together, at least until there are no big chunks of anything
- Add salt to taste (usually 1/4 to 1/2 tsp.)
- Serve with chips or over anything you want!
