Just made this and it is THE BOMB!!!  I’ll NEVER buy that store-bought junk again!!  I did add a small onion and extra garlic (I’m a garlic fanatic).  Thanks so much for this recipe!!

I made the salsa using whole (not canned) tomatoes and local Pueblo chilies. The consistency was just right by pulsing the tomatoes briefly in the blender. A couple of adjustments I will make next time around: add more salt. Canned tomatoes have salt as an ingredient, so the 1/2 teaspoon the recipe calls for may not be enough. Also, decide how hot you want your salsa to be. Mine was very hot because the Mirasol (Pueblo) chilies I used were hot. All in all, this recipe is flavorful and easy to make.

So easy to make and it was delicious! Thank you for the recipe!

Very flavorful. But a little too much garlic. I also added lime juice and a little cilantro. 

Just the way my mamasita would make it, I really never paid attention to the details, thank you for your help

Salsa Casera de Jesusita (Jesusita’s House Salsa) - This is the simple house salsa I grew up eating. My grandma, Jesusita made this same salsa daily. First she’d roast the long green chiles, and then she’d peel them. Instead of using a food processor or blender, she would squeeze the roasted chiles and tomatoes with her bare hands to make the salsa. This salsa casera is a perfect appetizer with a basket of your favorite tortilla chips or as the base for several of our recipes.
