Great Appetizer Idea for New Year's Eve - Fire Roasted Tomato Salsa
For the holidays this year, I wanted to share some of my favorite appetizers and snacks that make great party food, and nothing says "party" like a good batch of homemade salsa. This is a video I filmed last summer, but this recipe is every bit as good in the winter, just try to get vine ripened Roma tomatoes if possible. Here's what you'll need:
Fire Roasted Tomato Salsa Recipe Ingredients:
2 lbs Roma tomatoes, washed, cored, and cut in half
7-8 cloves garlic, peeled
2 chipotle peppers, seeded and roughly chopped
1 shallot, chopped
2 tsp sugar
1 Tbsp salt
2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
1 Tbsp olive oil
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro (use more if you love cilantro)
Broil the tomatoes and garlic as shown, blend all ingredients in a food processor, enjoy with corn tortilla chips. This salsa is best when it has chilled for a few hours.
