Servings: persons

3 -4 ripe roma tomatoes, quartered and seeded
2 (16 ounce) cans plain diced tomatoes
2 -3 garlic cloves, whole
2 jalapeno peppers, quartered and seeded
1 medium onion, cut into 1-inch chunks
2 limes, juice of
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, stems removed, whole
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1/8 - 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/8 teaspoon salt

1
Put garlic cloves and jalapeno pieces in food processor (a blender can be used but will put a lot of air into the salsa and will not be able to be served immediately), pulse a few time until coarsely chopped.
2
Place roma tomatoes in a microwaveable dish and microwave for 1 minute or so on high, then remove skins.
3
Add diced tomatoes, lime juice, pepper, salt, and red pepper flakes to food processor, pulse 3 or 4 times until everything looks well mixed.
4
Add onion, roma tomatoes, and cilantro, and pulse just a few times until onion is at desire consistency. Adding onions at the end is VERY important, otherwise they will become pureed and make a gross texture for the salsa.
5
If you want to remove the remaining metallic taste of the fresh tomato, cook over medium low heat in a non-reactive pot for about 15-20 minutes.
6
For best flavor, refrigerate over night to let flavors mingle.
