FIERY SALSA
Original recipe came from Relish Magazine in the newspaper; I have changed the amounts to make it more manageable for the home cook. This salsa is hot, remove seeds and inner membranes of peppers for a milder flavor or use less hot peppers. The peppers can be adjusted to your own personal taste. This is the best salsa I've ever eaten and a great way to use some of those summer tomatoes.

Tips:
- Use ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter the salsa will be.
- Roast the tomatoes: Roasting the tomatoes intensifies their flavor and gives the salsa a smoky depth of flavor.
- Use a variety of peppers: Different peppers will give your salsa different levels of heat and flavor. Be sure to include a mix of mild, medium, and hot peppers.
- Add some sweetness: A little bit of sugar or honey will help to balance out the heat of the peppers.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like cilantro, basil, and oregano will add a bright, refreshing flavor to your salsa.
- Let the salsa rest: After you've made your salsa, let it rest for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
