Ceremonial Salsa Recipe

by Chet Day

This beautiful Saturday I'd like to share a wonderful recipe for salsa that I received several years ago from Priss Lindsey, a reader of my free vegetarian recipes newsletter.

When she emailed me the recipe, Priss wrote, "Chet, after 40 years of perfecting salsa, this is the best!"

Whoa, that's high praise indeed.

If you like salsa, you're going to love today's recipe...

New Mexico Ceremonial Salsa

6-8 tomatillos, husked and cut into large chunks
1 basket cherry tomatoes, washed and stemmed
1 bunch cilantro, washed and cut up
4 cloves chopped garlic or 1 Tbs minced garlic
Juice of one lime
2-4 jalapeno peppers, seeded and sliced
1 giant Spanish onion, peeled and cut into large chunks

Put ingredients in blender and blend thoroughly. It may help to do the cherry tomatoes and tomatillas first to get a liquid consistency and then add in the other ingredients. Salt to taste.

This salsa gets better in the fridge and will keep for 4-7 days.

It's great with white corn chips or inside burritos or on tostados or even in a bowl of beans.

Try this salsa recipe and then come back and comment about it, won't you?
