Title: Chipotle Salsa Categories: None Yield: 1 Servings 10 Tomatillos; husks removed 3 Dried chipotle or morita -chiles Boiling water 2 Cloves garlic; sliced 1/2 ts Salt 1 tb Fresh lime juice Recipes are by Jacqueline Higuera McMahan INSTRUCTIONS: Char the tomatillos over a gas burner just until slightly blackened. Do not soften. I use a little grill, called the Asador, that fits over a burner. Set tomatillos aside. Soften chiles in boiling water for 20 minutes. (Or, cover the dried chiles with water, cover with plastic wrap, and microwave at high for 3 minutes.) Drain the chiles and remove the seeds from the softened chiles. Place the tomatillos, chipotles, garlic, salt and lime juice in a food processor or blender, and puree into a smooth sauce. Serve with quesadillas. Yields about 1 1/4 cups salsa.
