Bert's Famous Salsa

Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes
Course: Appetizer

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can 10 oz mild Rotel
  • 1 can 14.5 oz diced tomatoes, drained
  • 2 Tablespoons pickled jalapeno juice
  • 2 Tablespoons peperoncini juice
  • 1 dried red chili pepper can substitute a teaspoon of crushed red pepper
  • 1 peperoncini pepper
  • 2 slices pickled jalapeno
  • 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice
  • 2 Tablespoons minced garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 habanero pepper

Method
 

  1. *NOTE* When cutting your habanero pepper you should wear gloves or, just don't touch the pepper with your hands at all. Even if you wash your hands after handling the pepper, it's fire will still haunt you. Your eye will itch, and you will inevitably scratch it, and then life as you know it is OVER. Just trust us.
  2. Combine all the ingredients into a blender. Pulse for a few short bursts, until all the ingredients are mixed well. The salsa should be a smooth, restaurant-style consistency.
  3. Keep the salsa refrigerated until ready to serve.
  4. Store in an air-tight container for up to a week in the fridge.
