Instructions for Xnipec Salsa (mayan For "dogs Breath")

This Salsa Recipe is from the cookbook "Hot Spots" by Dave DeWitt, editor of Chile Pepper Magazine. This salsa is simple to make and is in constant demand from friends and relatives. Friends with allergies swear that it clears out their sinuses. Soak the diced onion in the lime juice for at least 30 minutes. Add the other ingredients and mix, salt to taste and add a little water if desired. Yield 1 1/2 cups Heat Scale: Extremely Hot! Thats it! What could be easier? Actually its a good starting point. I use more habs, dont remove the seeds, use 2 tomatoes (paste types) and either chop it up smaller in the blender or a food processor.

I made a chunkier version and only used two habanero peppers. Call me a wimp, but it was as hot as I could handle (and a little more besides). But it was very good! [I made edits to this recipe.]
