Pioneer Womans Restaurant Style Salsa Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Place the tomatoes, garlic, onion, jalapeno and poblano onto a baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast until charred in spots, about 15 minutes. Set aside and allow to cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer the roasted vegetables to a blender. Add the lime zest and juice and puree until smooth, being careful not to fill the blender too full. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the cilantro. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Goes great with chips or alongside enchiladas.

Steps:

• 1. Note: this is a very large batch. Recommend using a 12-cup food processor, or you can process the ingredients in batches and then mix everything together in a large mixing bowl.
• 2. Combine whole tomatoes, Rotel, onion, jalapeno (just cut the ends off and then cut the jalapeno into 4 chunks...you add the whole jalapeno including the seeds and membrane) garlic, sugar, salt, cumin, lime juice, and cilantro in a blender or food processor. Pulse until you get the salsa to the consistency you'd like---I do about 10 to 15 pulses (10 to 15 pulses is how Ree likes it...I like it a little chunkier, so I pulse it 5 times and then check it. Pulse till it's the consistency you want).Test seasonings with a tortilla chip and adjust as needed.
• 3. Refrigerate salsa for at least an hour. Serve with tortilla chips or cheese nachos
• 4. Pat's Note: You can make this as hot as you want by getting the hotter Rotel instead of the original and increasing the jalapeno pepper used to two instead of the one. When I have fresh tomatoes out of the garden, I use the same weight of them as the canned tomatoes. I will also use my home canned tomatoes. I also use two 14.5 oz. cans diced tomatoes and juice in place of the whole tomatoes. Adjust the garlic and onion to your taste.

Steps:

• You only need to rough chop the vegetables and toss them into a food processor, which includes: Onion, jalapeno, garlic, sugar, salt, cumin, lime juice, and cilantro in a blender or food processor. Pulse just a few times. Add the tomatoes and mild green chilis (or the Rotel tomatoes, if using). Pulse until you get the salsa to the consistency you'd like-I do about 10 to 15 pulses. Test seasonings with a tortilla chip and adjust as needed. Refrigerate salsa for at least an hour. Serve with tortilla chips or cheese nachos.

Steps:

• Into a food processor or blender, add the whole tomatoes with their juice, the Rotel, and the onion.
• Quarter the jalapeno lengthwise, then slice it thinly.
• Add the jalapeno and garlic to the mix.
• Next, add the sugar, salt, cumin, lime juice, and cilantro.
• Pulse several times until it reaches the consistency you like.
• Serve with chips.

Steps:

• Combine the diced tomatoes, whole tomatoes, cilantro, onions, garlic, jalapeno, cumin, salt, sugar and lime juice in a blender or food processor. (This is a very large batch. I recommend using a 12-cup food processor, or you can process the ingredients in batches and then mix everything together in a large mixing bowl.)
• Pulse until you get the salsa to the consistency you'd like. I do about 10 to 15 pulses. Test seasonings with a tortilla chip and adjust as needed.
• Refrigerate the salsa for at least an hour before serving.

Steps:

• Add the diced tomatoes, diced tomatoes with green chiles, lime juice, cumin, salt, sugar, black pepper, chipotle peppers, cilantro and onions to a food processor and blend until totally combined. Give it a taste to check for seasoning.
• Make the salsa several hours before serving, as it will give the flavors a chance to dance! Keeps in the fridge, covered, for about a week.
