GREEN CHILE MUSHROOM SALSA BUTTER

Steps:

• In a food processor blend together salsa butter, and salt until combined well. (Salsa butter may be made 3 days ahead and covered, chilled.)
• To make the salsa:
• Heat a dry comal or flat iron griddle over moderately low heat until hot and pan-roast poblanos, tomatoes, and garlic, turning them occasionally to ensure even roasting, until browned and soft throughout, 25 to 30 minutes.
• While vegetables are roasting, if using dried morels, in a small bowl soak in hot water until soft, about 15 minutes. Remove morels from soaking liquid and halve. Strain soaking liquid through a sieve lined with paper towels into another small bowl, reserving soaking liquid. If using fresh morels, wash well, pat dry, trim, and halve.
• In a small heavy skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté dried or fresh morels, stirring, until browned lightly, about 1 minute. If using dried morels, add reserved soaking liquid and boil until liquid is evaporated. Sauté dried or fresh morels, stirring until browned, about 3 minutes more.
• Wearing rubber gloves, stem and seed chiles. Discard tomato stems and garlic stems.
• In a food processor pulse chiles, tomatoes, garlic, morels, and epazote until chopped coarse (do not purée). In a bowl stir together chile mixture, water, and salt. (Salsa may be made 3 days ahead and chilled, covered. Bring salsa to room temperature before using.) Makes about 1 1/2 cups.

GRILLED RIB-EYE STEAKS WITH GREEN CHILE MUSHROOM SALSA BUTTER

Steps:

• Prepare grill.
• Pat steaks dry and brush on both sides with oil. Rub steaks with chipotle rub and in a shallow baking dish large enough to fit steaks in one layer marinate them at room temperature up to 30 minutes.
• Grill steaks on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until crusty and medium-rare, about 4 minutes on each side. (Alternatively, steaks may be cooked in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan.) Transfer steaks to a warm platter and let stand 5 minutes.
• Divide beans among 4 small deep platters and top with steaks. Dollop salsa butter on steaks and top with onion rings.
• For the Chipotle Rub:
• In a small heavy skillet dry-roast oregano over moderate heat, shaking skillet occasionally, until fragrant and beginning to brown, about 2 minutes, and transfer to a small bowl. Cool oregano completely and in an electric coffee/spice grinder grind fine.
• In a heavy skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and, using tongs, fry chiles, 1 or 2 at a time, turning them, until puffed and just beginning to brown, about 10 seconds. (Do not let chiles burn or rub will be bitter.) Transfer chiles as fried to paper towels to drain and cool until crisp.
• Wearing rubber gloves, break chiles into pieces and in coffee/spice grinder grind fine in batches. In a food processor grind oregano and chiles with garlic and salt until mixture is a shaggy, saltlike consistency. If mixture seems moist, on a large baking sheet spread it into a thin, even layer and dry in middle of an oven set a lowest temperature until no longer moist, about 1 hour. Wearing rubber gloves, break up any lumps with your fingers. (Chipotle rub keeps in an airtight container, chilled, 6 months. Regrind rub before using. Makes about 3 1/4 cups.)
