Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chiles

    Remove the stems and seeds from the dried Morita chiles. Toast them lightly in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn.

  2. 2

    Blend the Ingredients

    In a blender, combine the toasted Morita chiles, tomatoes, garlic, onion, lime juice, and salt. Blend until smooth and adjust the consistency with a little water if necessary.

  3. 3

    Add Fresh Ingredients

    Once blended, stir in the chopped cilantro for added flavor. Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Transfer the salsa to a bowl and serve immediately or refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
