TOMATILLO SALSA FRESCA



Tomatillo Salsa Fresca image

A fresh tomatillo salsa that is very easy to make using a blender. I dislike cooked tomatillos for two reasons: they lose their lovely green color and the texture to me is unsatisfactory. The beauty of tomatillo salsa is that it's cheap to prepare and it freezes well. Adapted from 1,000 Vegetarian Recipes.

Categories     Sauces

Time 10m

Yield 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb tomatillo (approximately 10-12 medium tomatillos)
1/3 cup white onion, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup cilantro leaf, lightly packed (NOT dried)
1 jalapeno pepper (for extra "kick", I use serrano and jalapeno, but any green chili pepper will do)
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • First prepare the tomatillos. Remove papery husks and then rinse tomatillos under warm running water, using your fingers to remove the sticky residue. Remove stems.
  • Chops into quarters.
  • Place all the ingredients into a blender or food processor.
  • Blend either coarse or smooth, depending on your preference.
  • Transfer tomatillo salsa to covered container and refrigerate at least 3 hours. Good with tortilla chips, enchiladas, tacos, etc.
  • I always triple the recipe and freeze in 8 ounce containers.

GREEN APPLE SALSA FRESCA



Green Apple Salsa Fresca image

NOTE: A reviewer mentioned the apples turning brown. See note at end of instructions for preventing this. I adopted this recipe. I have cleaned up the ingredients list. The original poster gave this description: Serve chilled with tortilla chips. Excellent served with salmon, pork or lamb. (If desired, warm the salsa quickly in a saute pan before spooning over meat or fish.)

Time 15m

Yield 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 cup apple juice
2 cups green apples, peeled, cored, and diced
1/2 cup red onion, chopped
1/2 cup poblano chile, seeded and diced (fresh, not dried)
1/2 teaspoon fresh oregano, minced
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon seasoned rice wine vinegar

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients, mixing well.
  • NOTE: To help keep apples from turning brown, fill a bowl large enough to hold apples with cold water and add enough lemon juice to cloud the water a bit. Place peeled apples in this mixture while waiting to dice them. After dicing, return to this mixture until ready to use. Drain and proceed.

THE ULTIMATE SALSA FRESCA



The Ultimate Salsa Fresca image

Salsa fresca is a generic term for any salsa that isn't cooked. There's no right or wrong way to do it - everyone does their own thing. This recipe is my take on what my mom used to make, but I think it's exceptional. (Pat on back, LOL!) Measurements are loose, but the key is the olive oil and mexican oregano. Prep time includes 15 minutes of standing time.

Categories     Sauces

Time 30m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb red ripe tomato, diced
1 small onion, finely diced
1/4 cup cilantro, roughly chopped
1 garlic clove, finely minced
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon Mexican oregano, rubbed between your palms to crush
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
2 -3 serrano chilies, minced (to taste, these are hot!)

Steps:

  • In a non-reactive bowl, combine first six ingredients.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add the minced serrano chiles, a little at a time, tasting for "heat" until you reach the level you can stand.
  • Let stand for fifteen minutes to let the flavors meld. A small squeeze of lime juice is also good.
  • Refrigerate until ready to use. Will NOT keep overnight.
  • NOTE: this is such a versatile salsa. Try it in scrambled eggs, then rolled in a flour tortilla (breakfast burrito). Yum!
