Sailors Salsa

Submitted by Laura Haas Knight

  • 2 cans mixed fruit, diced (I prefer Dole’s tropical mixed fruit-pineapple, papaya, mango)
  • 1 red sweet bell pepper, diced
  • 1/4 cup chopped red onion
  • 3 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons lime juice
  • 3 tablespoons orange juice
  • 2 tablespoons dark spiced rum (Captain Morgan’s)
  • 3-4 tablespoons cumin

Dice and combine all ingredients and refrigerate until chilled. This makes an excellent side with white fish (tilapia, halibut), chicken or pork.

Salsa Verde: Green Tomatillo Sauce

A Rick Bayless recipe

  •  8 ounces of tomatillos (husked and rinsed)
  • Hot green chiles (to taste, stemmed)
  • 5 or 6 sprigs of fresh cilantro (thick stems removed, roughly chopped)
  • ¼ cup finely chopped onion
  • ¼ cup water
  • Salt (to taste)

Raw salsa:

Chop the tomatillos and chiles and combine them, in a food processor or blender, with cilantro and water. Process until the mixture becomes a coarse puree then scrape into a serving dish. Stir in the onion after rinsing under cold water and removing excess moisture. Season with salt.

Roasted salsa:

Preheat the broiler on high then roast tomatillos and chiles until darkly roasted (put baking sheet 4 inches below the broiler for about 5 minutes). Flip chiles over and roast for another 4 to 5 minutes, until they are blackened in spots and blistered.

Combine the tomatillos and chiles in a food processor, making sure to pour in the juice that has collected on the baking sheet. Add cilantro and water then blend until the mixture is a coarse puree. Scrape into a serving dish and add rinsed onion (after removing excess moisture). Stir in onion and salt.
