FIERY SALSA



Fiery Salsa image

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.

GRILLED PORK WITH FIERY SALSA / POC CHUC



Grilled Pork With Fiery Salsa / Poc Chuc image

Number Of Ingredients 16

FOR CURING THE PORK:
1 piece pork loin, boneless, tenderloin, or chops
3 tablespoons salt, coarse (kosher or sea)
1 cup water
FOR THE PICKLED ONION:
1 red onion, large, peeled, root end left intact
1 cup orange juice, fresh and sour or 3/4 cup fresh lime juice plus 1/4 cup fresh regular orange juice
2 teaspoons salt
FOR THE SALSA CHILTOMATE:
2 tomatoes, fresh, ripe, medium sized
1 to 3 habanero or scotch bonnet chiles
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped fresh
3 tablespoons orange juice, fresh and sour or 2 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice plus 1/2 tablespoon fresh regular orange juice
1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
8 flour tortillas (6 inches or larger), for serving

Steps:

  • 1. To obtain 4 broad sheets of meat about 1/4 inch thick, butterfly the pork according to the directions for butterflying pork tenderloin.2. Combine the salt and water in a shallow bowl and whisk until the salt is dissolved. Add the pork pieces to the brine, cover, and let marinate for 15 minutes, turning the pieces once or twice to make sure all are equally exposed to the brine. Drain and refrigerate until ready to cook.3. Preheat the grill to high.4. Cut the onion into 8 wedges. Do not trim away the root end on each wedge it will help hold the wedge together as it grills. When ready to cook, oil the grill grate. Arrange the wedges on the hot grate and grill, turning with tongs, until nicely charred on both sides, about 4 minutes per side. 5. Trim off the root ends of the onions and transfer them to a small serving bowl stir in the sour orange juice and salt. Let the onions marinate at least 10 minutes. 6. Meanwhile, arrange the tomatoes and chiles on the grate and grill, turning with tongs, until nicely charred on all sides, about 8 to 12 minutes in all. The idea is to char the skins without cooking the vegetables through. Transfer the tomatoes and chiles to a plate to cool, 5 minutes.7. Combine the cooled tomatoes and chiles with the garlic in a blender or food processor and process to a coarse purée. Add the cilantro, sour orange juice, and salt and process just to mix. Transfer the salsa to a serving bowl.8. Just before serving, oil the grill grate and add 20 fresh coals, if necessary, to bump up the heat. Arrange the pork on the hot grate and grill, turning with tongs, until cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Press the pieces against the grate with the back of a metal spatula to make well-defined grill marks. Transfer the pork to a platter. Place the tortillas on the grate, just to warm, about 20 seconds per side. Serve the pork, accompanied by the grilled pickled onions, salsa, and a basket of warmed tortillas.Serves 4

Tips:

  • Choose the right tomatoes: Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes for the best salsa. Roma tomatoes are a good choice because they have fewer seeds and are less juicy.
  • Roast your tomatoes: Roasting tomatoes intensifies their flavor and gives them a smoky taste. You can roast tomatoes in the oven or on a grill.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your salsa will taste. If you can, use fresh herbs, garlic, and onions.
  • Add some heat: If you like spicy salsa, add some chopped jalapeños or cayenne pepper. You can also use a store-bought hot sauce.
  • Let the flavors meld: After you've made your salsa, let it sit for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop.

With so many different recipes to choose from, you're sure to find a salsa that you love. Whether you like it mild, medium, or hot, there's a recipe out there for you.
