Roasted Garlic Green Tomato Salsa

Ingredients

• 3 green tomatoes (about 1 1/4 pounds)
• 3 ripe tomatoes (red, orange or yellow; about 1 1/4 pounds)
• 1 small red onion, diced fine
• 1 1/2 teaspoons minced roasted garlic

• 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)

Directions

   In an ungreased iron skillet or comal, roast the jalapenos over medium heat, turning frequently, until blistered and charred, about 5-7 minutes.

2. 2

   Remove the jalapenos from the pan and soak them in a bowl of ice water, and when they have cooled, rub off the charred outer skin with your fingers and throw the skin away.

3. 3

   Stem and deseed the chiles and dice them very fine, and set aside.

4. 4

   Core the tomatoes and remove as many seeds as possible; cut into a fine dice and place in a bowl with all other ingredients; stir well to blend.

   Check seasoning in salsa and allow to sit for 1 hour or so before serving to develop flavor.
