Killer Salsa

Every time I make salsa, I get asked for my recipe. Even though I am a bonafide, 100% gringa, I take my Mexican food seriously. I spent some time in Oaxaca at a cooking school, often perusing the amazing central market there, where I discovered these chiles. I have eaten my way through a lot of the country. I could easily live there. And for 3 years, I dated a lovely man from Michoacán and became a study of his mother’s cooking.
