Categories     Mexican

Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb roma tomato, grated*
1 cup chicken broth
1/4 large white onion, roughly chopped
4 fresh serrano peppers, stems removed*
4 tablespoons fresh cilantro
3 garlic cloves
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano (Mexican preferred)
1 tablespoon fresh savory
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until very smooth, it should be fairly thin.
  • Heat 2 TB oil in a large skillet(no teflon) over high heat until very hot, but not smoking. Add the contents of the blender to the skillet and "fry" the sauce, stirring constantly, and scraping the bottom of the skillet to keep from sticking. Be careful, it makes a mess in the kitchen, but it is well worth it, be sure to wear your apron! Fry the sauce for 10-15 minutes, until it is reduced and the flavors have blended well. Keep warm and use immediately, or store it in the fridge for 2 days, or in the freezer for two months. If using frozen, allow to thaw first and reblend quickly as it tends to separate.
  • * Cut the tomatoes in half and grate them with your cheese grater right down to the skin. This retains the pulp, and not the skin, without having to boil them. Discard skins. You can used canned tomatoes too if you don't have time.
  • * Use chipotles for a nice smoky flavor.
  • * Amount of chiles given makes a picante dish. Omit if you don't like it spicy, but I recommend at least one to give it some flair.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my salsa turned out too runny. I think I should have cooked it for a little longer.

This salsa is a bit spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it. Next time, I'll use less chili peppers.

I love the smoky flavor of this salsa. I used a chipotle pepper in adobo sauce, which gave it a nice kick.

This salsa is a great way to use up leftover tomatoes. I always have a few extra tomatoes in the fridge, so this recipe is perfect for me.

This salsa is perfect for tacos, burritos, or just eating with tortilla chips. It's also great as a marinade for chicken or fish.

I love the addition of poblano peppers in this salsa. It gives it a unique flavor that I haven't tasted in other salsas.

I've tried many salsa ranchera recipes, but this one is by far the best. It's the perfect balance of sweet and spicy.
