What You'll Need:
- 2 whole tomatoes, diced and drained
- 1 serrano pepper, cut
- 1/4 onion, chopped
- 1 lime
- 1 pinch of fresh cilantro
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- A pinch of sea salt
- A dash of ground black pepper (dontcha love these ultra-scientific measurements?)
You can substitute whole tomatoes with canned tomatoes if you don't have access for whatever reason, and/or substitute the fresh lime with storebought lime juice, but the tastiest version uses fresh produce.
- Add all ingredients to blender except lime.
- Cut lime in half and squeeze juice into blender.
- Puree until smooth.
- Enjoy!
Tip: Make sure to dice and cut the ingredients fairly liberally, as you don't want to puree for too long.
If I use canned diced tomatoes and granulated onion powder, will there REALLY be a taste difference? Or regular (Mortons) salt instead of sea salt?
ReplyDeleteMarcia - if that's all you have access to, I'm sure they will work fine. But if you can, freshest is bestest :)
