FRESH SALSA

2 lg. ripe tomatoes
8 lg. jalapeno peppers
2 lg. onions
1 green bell pepper
5 cloves garlic
1 tbsp. salt
2 tbsp. sugar

Using a blender or food processor, put 1 each of all vegetables and using pulse just until it is still chunky. Drain reserving liquid. Repeat until it is all done.
Mix drained salsa, adding sugar and salt and at this point, add some of drained liquid to make it to suit your taste. If it seems too hot, add more tomatoes. Store in glass jar and use on tacos, scrambled eggs, or as a relish. Since this is fresh, it will not store too long. Makes about 1 quart. Must be refrigerated.

FRESH TOMATO SALSA

4 lg. ripe plum tomatoes
1/4 c. chopped scallions
1/4 c. chopped cilantro (fresh coriander)
1 tbsp. fresh oregano
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp. minced jalapeno pepper, or to taste
1 tbsp. olive oil
2 tsp. fresh lime juice
Salt & freshly ground black pepper to taste

Cut the tomatoes in half lengthwise and remove the seeds. Cut the halves into 1/4" and dice. Place in a medium size bowl. Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl. Let sit, loosely covered, at room temperature for the flavors to blend. Serve immediately or refrigerate and serve within 4 hours. For nachos, chicken, fish, vegetables - or anytime you need a salsa with zip - this will do the trick!
