Cascabel Salsa

1. 1

   Break the peppers into pieces for a better roasting. Slightly roast peppers on a medium hot griddle, turning the peppers to evenly roast. Turn frequently to avoid burning the peppers. This step will take about 1-2 minutes.

2. 2

   Once you roast the peppers, place them in a small saucepan with 2 cups of hot water to soak for about 15 minutes, or until they are soft.

3. 3

   Meanwhile, roast tomatillos on the hot griddle, and once they are roasted, wrap them in an aluminum foil to keep warm while the peppers are soaking.

4. 4

   Place tomatillos, softened peppers, garlic, and 1/2 cup of water into your blender and process until you have a smooth sauce. If you like, you can also puree the sauce in a food processor to give the salsa a coarse texture. Season with salt and pepper.
