Ingredients:

  • 3-4 cups chopped tomatoes (fresh from the garden are best!)
  • 2-3 cloves of garlic
  • 1/2 yellow or orange habanero pepper
  • 1 lemon or lime

Directions:

  1. Chop the pepper as fine as you can. Wear gloves if you can. Be careful of the pithe, it is very hot. I take out all of the seeds & as much of the pithe as I can.
  2. Chop/dice the tomatoes. The acid from the tomatoes will help get the hottness off of your fingers.
  3. Mince the garlic & chop the onion.
  4. Add the juice of the lemon or lime and then taste. Add salt to taste. I prefer kosher or sea salt.
  5. Chop the cilantro & combine. Let sit for an hour or two before deciding to add any more pepper. The salsa will get hotter the longer it sits.
  6. Serve with tortilla chips.
