Recipe By: Houston Chronicle (Universal Press Syndicate)

This classic salsa starts with fresh tomatoes, but canned tomatoes can be
substituted. Tasting as you go is a must, since the heat of jalapenos
varies.

With a paring knife, cut a small "X" in the bottom of each tomato. Place
tomatoes in a large pot of boiling water 10 seconds to loosen skins. Peel
and place tomatoes in blender container. Add unseeded jalapenos, garlic,
salt, and pepper. Blend to desired consistency. Makes about 3 cups.
