For this one, I did a 50/50 mix of tomatoes and tomatillos, with garlic, onion and cilantro. All raw.
– 5-6 cocktail sized tomatoes or 1-2 regular ones.
– 3-4 medium tomatillos
– 2 habaneros
– 4 serranos
– 1/4 or so tsp salt (maybe? or less)
– small handful of cilantro
– some lime juice
Put everything but the cilantro, lime and salt in the blender. Whizz it up a bit. Open it and put in the cilantro, then do 1-2 small pulses. Add lime juice, salt, stir and test it and add more if it's not enough. This makes a very tangy and fresh tasting salsa.

oops, I forgot the onion and garlic in the recipe. I put in 4-5 cloves of garlic too, and about 1/4 of a medium white onion.
Looks tasty but lately the raw salsa fresca gives me serious acid belly (heart burn).
2 habaneros and 4 Serrano? Not super hot?
Haven’t tried raw tomatillos in a salsa yet. I usually roast them. I’ll have to try it. Looks really good!
