INGREDIENTS
- 2 Habanero chilies (or scotch
- 1 lg Ripe tomato; cut in 1/4 in
- 1/2 c White onion; finely chopped
- 3 tb Orange juice
- 2 tb Fresh lime juice PLUS
- 1 tb Fresh orange juice
- 1/2 ts Salt
INSTRUCTIONS
Combine the chilies, tomato, onion, cilantro, 3 tablespoons sour orange juice, and salt in a serving bowl. Toss to mix. Correct the seasoning, adding more sour orange juice if necessary. The salsa tastes best served within 3 hours of making. Makes about 1 cup; enough to serve 4 to 6. Note: You can blunt the salsa bite a little by seeding the chilies. Of course, youll lose a great measure of authenticity. Formatted by JoAnn Pellegrino 9/98 NOTES : The worlds most colorfully named salsa-xni pec (pronounced "shnee pek") ~ is also one of the worlds hottest. Xni is the Mayan word for "dog", pec for "nose". Just why its thus named is a matter of debate. The most likely explanation is that the chilies make your nose run, an effect I can readily attest to. And a dogs nose is always wet. Ive given a range of chilies-a person from the Yucatan would use the full eight. There is more to this fighter than heat alone. The onion, tomato, cilantro, and sour orange create a complex play of flavors. Recipe by: Barbecue! The Bible/S. Raichlen Posted to KitMailbox Digest by J Pellegrino
