In my not-as-yet-yet-hopefully-not-never-ending quest for a peach salsa recipe that will supplant my addiction to Trader Joe's Smokey Peach Salsa, I tried a recipe for
smokey peach salsa from someone who sounds similarly afflicted.
Next time: I'll probably try to get closer to the recommended ingredient list. I didn't get my hands on chipotles or a habanero chili, but used jalapeños. I also opted for herbs from my garden (parsley and basil) rather than cilantro. I also wasn't so good at getting the peach chunks small enough (because I first read it as 1" chunks rather than 1/4" chunks).
 |
| Scallions and onions from the garden |
 |
| Process the peaches: peel, pit, partition |
 |
| Blend half the peaches, tomato paste, herbs, hot pepper |
 |
| Much chopping required. |
 |
| Double, double toil and trouble; fire burn and cauldron bubble. |
 |
| Add chunky bits: peaches, tomato, lime juice |
 |
| Good thing I didn't use a smaller pan. |
 |
| Salsa all jarred up. |
Update:
next batch was much more mild, and quite tasty.
Not quite TJ's, but still quite good. I look forward to the next try.
