• When the grill is hot place wood over coals or gas flame.
• Replace grate.
• Place tomatoes, jalapenos and onions on a hot grill - over hot coals, not high flames.
• Pile cilantro on top, so that it does not touch the grill.
• Place lid on grill.
• Lightly blacken all on both sides. 10 to 15 minutes per side.
• Remove cilantro and jalapeno stems.
• For milder version remove jalapeno seeds.

ROASTED TOMATO-CHIPOTLE SALSA

Steps:

• You Will Need:.
• 6 16 oz pint preserving jars with lids and band.
• 1.) TOAST chipotle and cascabel chilies in a large dry skillet, over medium heat, working in batches, about 30 seconds per side, until they release their aroma and are pliable. Transfer to a large glass or stainless steel bowl. When all chilies have been toasted, add 2 cups hot water. Weigh chilies down with a bowl or a weight to ensure they remain submerged, and soak until softened, about 15 minutes. Working in batches, transfer chilies and soaking liquid to a blender or a food processor fitted with a metal blade and purée until smooth. Set aside.
• 2.) Roast tomatillos, tomatoes, onions and garlic, under a broiler, in the meantime, turning to roast all sides, until tomatillos and tomatoes are blistered, blackened and softened, and onions and garlic are blackened in spots, about 15 minutes.
