ROASTED PEPPER BLENDER SALSA

Steps:

• In this order, put the cilantro, roasted red pepper, garlic, jalapeno, onion, lime juice and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a blender. Pulse until broken down but still chunky, scraping the inside of the carafe as necessary.

BLUEBERRY LIME SALSA

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Place the jalapeno under the broiler and char on all sides. Remove, place in a brown paper bag, close and set aside.
• In the bowl of a food processor, combine 2 cups of the blueberries, the onion and red pepper. Process until the mixture is coarsely chopped. Transfer to a bowl and add the lime juice and salt and stir to combine. Set aside.
• Using a paper towel or rubber gloves to protect your skin if it is sensitive to hot peppers, trim the stem and peel off the skin of the jalapeno. Slice it in half, remove and discard the seeds (unless you like your salsa really hot), and finely chop the jalapeno.
• Add the jalapeno to the blueberry mixture, along with the basil, cilantro, the remaining 1/2 cup blueberries, the oil, ginger and several turns of the pepper mill, and stir well to combine.
• Set aside for about 1 hour to allow the flavors to blend.
