Salsa Contest


There was a Salsa Contest today at work. I made my first salsa! It tastes good and a bit spicy...Will likes it.
Will has made salsas...but I think maybe once, a long time ago I might have tried one or helped to make one. So I'm calling this the 'first salsa I've ever made'
There was a recipe online that sounded good. My favorite type of salsa is Chevys salsa or LaVictoria(I don't really like chunky salsa). So that's the type of recipe I was looking for.

9 tomatos, 1 large white onion, 2 garlic cloves, 3(or more) jalepenos.
Cut all the ingredients in to 1" pieces. Put in a pan and roast/broil until charred.
-I think next time I'll let them get more black..I took the pan out when there was back tips on all the veggies.
I let everything cool fo 10 min. then I put everything(squeezed the garlic out of the cloves) into a blender. I blendered it until combined and added 1 Tablespoon of salt ..and that's it

Alot of work friends said they enjoyed my Salsa :)
One of the judges (not knowing #8 was mine) said that she thought #8 might have been store bought. It was the only blended one...most of the other salsas were chunky.
