salsa

I found habanero salsa on p. 112. I'll paraphrase the recipe for you:

Xnipec is the Mayan word for this mixture and means "nose of the dog"- I'm sure your nose will be wet and running after a good spoonul of this!

about 2 lbs. fresh tomatillos, husked
1/2 med. white onion
4 peeled cloves garlic
1 fresh habanero chili, (or more for you masochists out there)
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
1 1/2 Tbs. fresh lime juice
1 tsp. salt

On a foil-lined baking sheet, broil the tomatillos,onion,garlic and chili until blackened in spots - chile will blacken in half the time of the others. Transfer to blender with any accumulated juices. Add remaining ingredients. Puree, check for salt and chill up to 4 hrs.
