Time 45m

Yield about 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pounds ripe plum tomatoes (or 1 28-ounce can tomatoes)
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
6 to 8 dried chiles de árbol
1 small onion, sliced
1 garlic clove
6 cloves
1 or 2 pieces Mexican canela, or 1/4 teaspoon each ground cinnamon and allspice
Salt

Steps:

  • To make salsa: If using fresh tomatoes, place in a pot of simmering water and let cook until soft, about 15 minutes. Drain, remove stem ends, and purée with a blender.
  • In a skillet, heat oil until shimmering. Add chilies, onion, garlic, cloves and canela (or spices), sprinkle with salt and cook over medium-low heat, stirring, until softened and golden, about 8 minutes. Add tomato purée or canned tomatoes and simmer, stirring often, until thickened and slightly sweet, about 15 minutes. Taste for salt. Purée with a blender until smooth.

I was a little hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a fan of cilantro. But I'm so glad I did! The cilantro adds a really nice freshness to the salsa.
