Fresh Salsa Ala Food Processor Recipes

LEAH'S EASY FOOD PROCESSOR SALSA

Steps:

• Put garlic cloves and jalapeño pieces in food processor (a blender can be used but will put a lot of air into the salsa and will not be able to be served immediately), pulse a few time until coarsely chopped.
• Place roma tomatoes in a microwaveable dish and microwave for 1 minute or so on high, then remove skins.
• Add diced tomatoes, lime juice, pepper, salt, and red pepper flakes to food processor, pulse 3 or 4 times until everything looks well mixed.
• Add onion, roma tomatoes, and cilantro, and pulse just a few times until onion is at desire consistency. Adding onions at the end is VERY important, otherwise they will become pureed and make a gross texture for the salsa.
• If you want to remove the remaining metallic taste of the fresh tomato, cook over medium low heat in a non-reactive pot for about 15-20 minutes.
• For best flavor, refrigerate over night to let flavors mingle.

Steps:

• Cut stem end off of Roma Tomatoes and make an "X" in the skin on the other end and place in a microwave safe bowl, add a couple tablespoons of water and cover with plastic wrap. Microwave on high about 2 minutes, until tomatoes are softened and skins come off easily. Discard skins and set aside.
• Put garlic, jalepeno, spices, Maggi Seasoning and lime juice in the work bowl of a 6 cup food processor with the chopping blade, and pulse a couple times until the garlic and jalepeno are minced.
• Add canned tomatoes and pulse about 3 times.
• Add Roma tomatoes, onion, and cilantro and pulse until the onion is at desirable size- 1/4 inch or so.
