ESSENTIAL CHOPPED TOMATO-SERRANO SALSA (SALSA MEXICANA CLASSICA)

Steps:

• Core the tomatoes, then cut in half widthwise and squeeze out the seeds if you wish (it will give the sauce a less rustic appearance). Finely dice the flesh by slicing it into roughly 1/4-inch thick pieces, then cutting each slice into small dice. Scoop into a bowl.
• Cut the chiles in half lengthwise (wear rubber gloves if your hands are sensitive to the piquancy of the chiles) and scrape out the seeds if you wish (not only will this make the salsa seem less rustic, but it will make it a little less picante). Chop the chiles as finely as you can, then add them to the tomatoes. Carefully bunch up the cilantro sprigs, and, with a sharp knife, slice them 1/16-inch thick, stems and all, working your way down from the leafy end until you run out of leaves. Scoop the chopped cilantro into the tomato mixture along with the optional garlic. Next, finely dice the onion with a knife (a food processor will turn it into a sour mess), scoop it into a small strainer, then rinse it under cold water. Shake to remove the excess water and add to the tomato mixture. Taste and season with lime juice and salt, and let stand if you have a little time, for the flavors to meld before using or scooping into a salsa dish and serving.

FRESH HOMEMADE SALSA FOR CANNING

Steps:

• Wash all jars, lids etc in the dishwasher.
• Always wear gloves while preparing salsa!
• Prepare tomatoes by soaking tomatoes in boiling water for 2-3 minutes to split and loosen skins. Peel and chop all tomatoes, drain excess juices off in a strainer or colander before adding to extra large bowl. (I half or quarter the tomatoes, then process briefly in a food processor before draining off juices, I like the tomatoes kind of chunky).
• Dice or cube all onions and peppers into the same bowl. Add chopped cilantro. (I do all the onions, peppers and cilantro in a food processor - I keep them kind of chunky also).
• Once all the vegies are in the bowl, stir in the lemon juice, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
• Taste to see if it is as hot as you would like it - if not add 1-2 more hot peppers tasting after each addition. Keep in mind as it sits for a while it will get a little bit hotter.
• Bring all ingredients to a boil in large pot & simmer for 15 minutes. Stir often to prevent sticking.
• Fill jars leaving about 3/4 inch at the top. Wipe off tops of the jars before putting lids on. Screw lids tight then turn back about 1/4 turn.
• Process in steam canner (not pressure cooker / steamer) or boiling water bath for 15 minutes.
• Cool jars.
• Before storing, test each jar to be sure it has sealed by pressing down on lid, it should not move.

• Using a blender or food processor, add equal amounts of each vegetable and using pulse, process just until it is still chunky.

FRESH SEAFOOD SALSA

Steps:

• Add the chopped seafood.
• Slowly add lime juice until everything is just covered. You may need more than is recommended in the ingredients list.

• Feel free to add tomatoes, corn, or anything else you might like. It is also okay to use all shrimp or all scallops or to substitute in just about any other shellfish or white fish that you like.
• Refrigerate at least 3 hours.
• You can drain off a little of the lime juice if you like, but I don't find this necessary.
• Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Serve with tortilla chips or as a garnish to a fish dish. I'm sure you can find many uses for this delicious salsa!
