Directions

  1. Roast poblano and jalapeno peppers until charred on all sides.  Put in bowl and cover with plastic wrap.
  2. Heat skillet on medium until hot.  Put corn in skillet and stir occasionally until roasted and a few kernals are blackened (about 8 min).

Salsa recipes

I have had many things come up in the last few weeks that have prevented me from updating the blog.  I thought now might be a good time to take a break for a couple of weeks and resume the blog in August.  It is almost time for tomatoes to be ripe so I thought I would post a link to a site that has copycat salsa recipes from restaurants.  Have fun trying them out!
