  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  4             medium  tomatoes -- (about 1 pound)
     1/2         small  red onion
  2        tablespoons  cilantro leaves -- coarsely chopped (2 to 4)
  3             cloves  garlic -- roughly chopped
  1                     canned chilpotle chilies -- or 1 to 2 serrano or jalapeno chilies (1 to 2)
                        Salt
                        Rice wine vinegar -- to taste
 
 
Bring a small pan of water to a boil, immerse the tomatoes for a count of
ten, and immediately set them in a bowl of cold water. Cut out the cores,
then remove the skins and squeeze out the seeds. Or, for a more rustic
salsa, simply wash the tomatoes and chop them.
Blend the onion, cilantro, and garlic together with a little of the tomato
for about 20 seconds; then add the rest of the tomato and blend very
briefly, retaining some texture.
Mince or puree the chili and add it, to taste, to the sauce. Season with
salt and a 1/4 teaspoon or more vinegar to bring up the flavors.
 
Makes about 2 1/2 cups (5 one-half cup servings)
 
Red, tangy, and tart, this sauce is an excellent condiment to serve with
the Chilaquiles or the Crepas con Queso y Verduras. Use the smoked
chilpotle chilies, or for a fresher taste, use serrano chilies, seeded and
chopped.
