Stephs Salsa Recipes

SALSA

Steps:

• In a medium-size mixing bowl, combine tomatoes, onion, cilantro, garlic, lime juice, tomatillo, and salt to taste. Mix well. Add 1/2 of the jalapeno pepper, and taste. If you desire your salsa with more of a kick, add the remaining 1/2 jalapeno. If you are satisfied with the salsa's heat, do not add the remaining jalapeno pepper. Cover the salsa, and chill until ready to serve.

STEAK AND SALSA

Steps:

• Place the steaks in a single layer in a large glass or ceramic baking dish. Whisk the remaining ingredients together in a bowl and pour over the steaks, making sure both sides are coated. Cover loosely and refrigerate for 12, or preferably 24 hours, turning every 2 or 3 hours.
• 1 1 /2 hours before serving, make the sauce: combine the tomatoes, vinegar, cilantro, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a blender. Blend for 1 minute, or until smooth and emulsified. Transfer to a glass or ceramic bowl, add the onion and green pepper, cover with plastic wrap, and let sit at room temperature.
• Half an hour before serving, remove the steaks from the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature.
• When ready to serve, preheat a grill or griddle pan to high heat. Shake the steaks dry and grill them for 6 to 8 minutes on each side, or until done to your liking. Let the steaks rest, loosely covered with foil, for 5 to 7 minutes. Carve the meat across the grain into 1 inch slices and serve with white rice and Molho Campanha.

SALSA ROJA

Steps:

• Combine 1 large white onion, halved, 4 medium plum tomatoes (about 12 oz.), halved, 1-2 serrano chiles, 4 garlic cloves, and 3 oz. dried ancho, guajillo, and/or pasilla chiles, stems and seeds removed, in a medium saucepan, using fresh vegetables to weigh down dried chiles. Pour in water just to cover. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat. Cover and let sit until dried chiles are rehydrated and fresh vegetables are softened, 20-25 minutes.
• Using a slotted spoon, transfer vegetables to a blender; reserve soaking liquid. Add ½ bunch cilantro, tough stems trimmed, coarsely chopped, juice of 1 lime, 1½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1 tsp. Morton kosher salt, ½ tsp. ground cumin, ¼ tsp. ground cinnamon, and 1 cup reserved soaking liquid. Blend, starting on low speed and gradually increasing to high, until smooth, about 2 minutes. Taste salsa and add more salt if needed.
