I am going to a party for the game Saturday night and need a good salsa recipe. I used to have one but lost it!

go to a good HEB and get the 4th Aniversary salsa they have at the central market counter-- and say you forgot all what you put it

Okay, this one has worked for me. My abuelita and my Tia Stellita made it this way.

1 - 14 oz can of whole tomatoes drained
1 roma tomato
1/4 large onion
1 serrano pepper
1/2 bunch cilantro
1 lime juiced
3 garlic cloves
salt, pepper, comino to taste

Process in a food processor or blender until desired consistency. Enjoy.

I have used this one for several years, it is very easy and it always comes out great. It is from Robert del Grande, of Cafe Annie fame. Make it the night before (or at least several hours before) if possible and stick it in the refrigerator for teh flavors to really combine

Recipe from Robert Del Grande, Cafe Annie, Houston.
12 ripe plum tomatoes
1 small yellow onion, coarsely chopped
6 cloves garlic
5 serrano chiles
Small bunch of cilantro
2 to 4 chipotle chiles, canned
Salt and pepper, to taste
Lime juice, to taste

Place tomatoes in roasting pan like billiard balls in a rack. Add onion, garlic, and serrano chiles. Roast at 400 degrees about 45 minutes or until tomato skins are blistered and charred. Let cool, remove pepper stems, and transfer to food processor. Add cilantro and chipotles. Process 1 minute. Add salt, pepper, and juice.

Makes About 4 cups.

This recipe is very easy, and makes a great salsa.

4-5 big tomatoes. 3-4 serranos per tomatoe
remove core from top of tomatoe and cut tops off of serranos
Put te tomatoes in a pot, then throw in the serranos.
Turn temp to 7.5 or 8 out of a 10 heat setting.
Put top on pot and walk away for 30min. Have a beer or two.

Come back and remove top, becareful not to burn yourself from the steam. Use a wooden spoon and mix the pot up. MAKE SURE YOU SCRAPE UP ALL THE CHARRED BITS, this imparts the best flavor on the salsa. Put top back on pot and walk away for another 30 min. Have another beer or three.

Come back and repeat above step. Turn down heat to medium, add salt to taste. I like Kosher Salt, let salsa simmer for about 5 min. Remove from heat put in bowl and serve with chips.

I like it better chilled, but it's good hot too.

There you have it, La Fogata Salsa.

After 5-6 beers in an hour, shoe leather would taste good.

Actually, it sounds easy and I will give it a try. Thanks for the posts.
