Add a photoThis is an authentic Mexican salsa, all the more interesting because of its chunky style. Piquin chiles are very small, but very hot, with a smoky, citrusy flavor. If you can't find piquines, substitute any fresh, hot chile.
This is an easy salsa to make with few ingredients. The techniques of toasting the tomato and chiles and simmering the tomatillos are how salsas are traditionally made in Mexico. See my blog for more recipe photos and detailed instructions.
