Ingredients

  • ¼ cup dried chiltepines

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a medium pot add the tomatoes and about 2 cups water or enough to cover the tomatoes.
  2. Cover and bring to a soft boil over medium high heat. Once you reach the boiling point, lower heat to medium low and cook the tomatoes for 2 minutes.
  3. Add the chiltepines and cook over medium heat until the tomatoes are soft. About 5 minutes. Remove from heat and cool the tomatoes and chiltepines in the water for about 5 minutes.
  4. To a blender, add the cooled tomatoes, chiltepines and rest of the ingredients. Puree well for a couple of minutes or until you no longer see chunks.
  5. If the salsa is too dense, add one tablespoon of the cooked water at the time until you reach the desired consistency.
