Fire-Roasted Tomato Salsa

From the Keri Fisher collection

Introduction

Wait until your local tomatoes are at their peak, then make this punchy salsa.

Ingredients

Steps

1. Set the oven to 500 degrees and position a rack in the center. In a large bowl, combine the tomatoes, both kinds of pepper, onion, garlic, and vegetable oil. Arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet and cook 15 minutes or until soft. Set oven to broil and cook 3 to 5 minutes, or until edges begin to blacken. Set aside to cool slightly.
2. When cool, transfer roasted vegetables to a food processor; add cilantro, olive oil, salt, and pepper, and pulse 4 to 6 times, or until coarsely chopped. Serve at room temperature or chilled.
