SUE'S MEXICAN TABLE SALSA

Steps:

• About one hour before, tear off the stems and any woody part from the dried chiles.
• Shake out all the seeds, and tear them up (like you are ripping up an evil credit card) and place them into a heatproof bowl.
• Cover torn chiles with the 4 cups boiling water (make sure they are covered well- add more boiling water if needed).
• Weigh the top of the chiles down with a heatproof plate (just to make sure they stay submerged).
• Allow them to soften in the hot water for about 1 hour.
• Using a slotted spoon, remove the chiles from the water, but do not discard the water (set it aside for now).
• Place the softened chiles in a blender or food processor, along with the chopped 1/2 onion, salt, garlic, red wine vinegar, and lime juice.
• Puree mixture until smooth, adding 3/4-1 cup of the reserved soaking liquid to get the consistency you like (discard any liquid you don't need or save it to cook with rice).
• Pour pureed salsa into a bowl, and stir in the minced chiles (protect your hands if you want with gloves while mincing) (use habanero, jalapeno or whatever kind you like or have) and chopped cilantro.
• If you have not protected your hands with gloves while mincing the hot chiles, wash them several times with dishwashing liquid to help remove some of the volatile oils.
• And don't rub your eyes.
• The salsa may get hotter as it sits for awhile with those minced chiles, so consider that when deciding how many chiles to use.
• Adjust seasonings for salt (if necessary) and serve with warmed chips or over food.

SALSA VERDE CRUDA

Steps:

• Starting with the tomatillos, put all of the ingredients in a blender or food processor, then process to a smooth consistency. The salsa should be quite thick, so don't be tempted to add water to thin it. It is best when served right away, but it will keep in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.

AUTHENTIC MEXICAN STYLE TABLE SALSA

Steps:

• In medium saucepan add onion, tomatillo and serrano and enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and boil until tomatillo is soft and changes color to a more yellow color (about 10 minutes). While these are boiling, add a few tablespoons of oil to a small saute pan over medium heat. Add the chiltepins and chile pequins for about 10 seconds and remove to drain on a paper towel. Let cool completely. When vegetables are done boiling remove from water and let cool completely. Add everything into a blender and process until smooth.
• Notes - I use 12 chile pequins and 10 chiltepins but I like my salsa pretty hot. Sometimes I will just use my deep fat fryer to toast the chiles instead of using the saute pan.
• If you like your salsa more chunky, reserve half of the tomatoes and the onion, dice and stir in at the end.
