“Dirty Salsa”

This is a favorite of my family and I’s. I make it weekly and it lasts maybe 3 days tops. Ingredients are:

3 jalapeños
5-6 garlic cloves
1 white onion
5 Roma tomatoes
2 medium size poblanos
1 small bunch cilantro
2-3tbs chicken bouillon powder

Roast all of the veggies until charred…now I want you to read that again, lol, not lightly charred, but CHARRED. Trust me, the flavor you will get from the char is unmatched. Once it’s charred I put the poblanos and jalapeños in a bag for a minute to continue to get soft. I keep the skins on all my peppers. Then I remove the stems and seeds from the poblanos, add them to the bowl, cut the stems off the jalapeños and keep the seeds, unless you don’t want it as spicy, I like the spice. Then the rest of your ingredients. I use an immersion blender to make my salsa , you can use a stand blender. Once blended add the bouillon powder and small amounts of water to get it to your desired consistency.

This salsa is earthy, Smokey and it’s got a little kick. I call it dirty because of how it looks when it’s done, not quite a verde, but not quite a roja, it’s a perfect balance of in between. Cheers!
