Equipment & Tools
- Pot
- Electric Blender
- Cutting Board
- Knife
- Measuring Spoon
- Bowl
Ingredients
- 18 Jalapenos
- 2 Cloves Garlic
- 2 tbsp Fresh Lime Juice
- ¾ tsp Salt Or To Taste
- ¾ cup Pastene Sunflower Oil, Recommended
Instructions
- Boil the jalapenos in a pot of water for about 20 minutes, or until soft at medium heat
- Take them out of the water and place aside.
- Place the garlic cloves in the hot water for 2 to 3 minutes, then take them out.
- This is a technique for softening the garlic's sharp edge by lightly cooking it.
- Let your jalapenos cool completely, then remove the stems and seeds with your hands.
- Place all the ingredients in an electric blender, leaving out the oil.
- Turn on the blender and grind the jalapenos for a few seconds, then slowly drizzle in the oil until you have a lovely green emulsion.
- Don't make this salsa too thick at first; it will thin out a little after being chilled.
- When you take it out of the fridge, it should still be slightly liquid.
Notes
- Roast your jalapenos under a broiler, on the stove, or on the grill for a smoky flavor. Allow cooling before removing the stems, seeds, and the majority of the skin. Continue with the recipe using charred jalapenos. This creates a slightly smoky green sauce with flecks of black charred bits for color.
- Use soybean oil. in place of sunflower oil. Light olive oil also works well for heart-healthy oils. However, a strongly flavored olive oil will be overpowering in the salsa and give it an odd aftertaste.
