Here's how to make it

1
Order the Salsa Macha package with all Westlandpeppers products: 3 solo garlic, 25g arbol peppers, 25g tepin peppers and 10g morita peppers.

2
Finely chop the garlic and mix it with the salt. Heat 100ml of peanut oil in a pan and slowly fry the garlic in it until it has a light brown color. Be careful, it can quickly become too brown and then you get a bitter result. When it is ready, let the garlic oil cool in a bowl.

3
Roast the dried peppers and peanuts in a dry frying pan for about 2 minutes on medium heat and deglaze with the remaining 200ml of peanut oil. Fry until the oil is at temperature and the roasted peppers discolor a little. Remove the roasted peppers and peanuts from the heat and let cool.

4
Put the garlic oil and roasted pepper/peanut oil in a blender or mix with a hand blender until you reach the desired thickness and structure.

5
Put the salsa in a clean jar, screw on the lid. Place the jar upside down so that it vacuums and is perfectly sealed. Let the salsa cool and store in the refrigerator.

Shelf life

Once you have opened the jar of salsa, it has a limited shelf life. If you always use a clean spoon, you extend the shelf life. You can also pour a small layer of oil on top of the salsa after you have scooped something out. Or of course, use it up right away, because it is so tasty!

Ingredients

  • 25 g peanuts
