Steps:
- Char the tomatoes over a gas grill or under the flame of a hot broiler for 2 minutes to char the skin, turning them until the peel blisters. Slip off the peel, and the flesh should still be firm. Remove the green stem core and cut the tomatoes in half vertically. Use a teaspoon to scoop out the seeds and discard.
- In the food processor, drop in the garlic, cilantro, green onions and jalapenos into the bowl of the food processor to chop for just a few seconds.
- Add all the remaining ingredients from the recipe, tomatoes, Serrano chili, the chopped green chilies and lime juice. The texture is somewhere between a chow-chow relish and a textured puree. You want to see tiny bits of all the vegetables throughout the salsa. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Place in fridge for approximately one hour.

REALLY FRESH SALSA MEXICANO
A delicious salsa that uses a combination of fresh and canned tomatoes to get that perfect balance of fresh tomato taste with the deeper richness that comes with canned tomatoes. All other ingredients are raw. Adjust the flavors to your taste...more or less anaheims, cilantro or red onion will change how spicy it is and what kind of flavor it has. The yield is approximate.
