Begin by preparing your ingredients:
Slice the white onions and tomatoes into big, rustic chunks.
Cut the stems off the banana peppers and Serranos. If you prefer milder heat, remove the seeds; otherwise, leave them in for an extra kick.
Roasting the vegetables:
Lay the prepared onions, tomatoes, banana peppers, and Serranos on a flat pan.
Preheat your grill or oven to medium-high heat and place the pan inside.
Allow the vegetables to roast until they develop a charred appearance. This roasting step will infuse your salsa with a smoky depth of flavor. Keep an eye on them to prevent over-charring.
Blending the flavors:
Once the vegetables are roasted to perfection, carefully remove them from the grill or oven.
Transfer the roasted vegetables to a blender.
Add a small amount of water to the blender, adjusting the quantity based on the desired consistency of your salsa.
Sprinkle in a generous portion of Big Poppa’s Jallelujah Jalapeño Seasoning. The seasoning will enhance the heat and flavor profile of the salsa.
Creating the salsa:
Blend the mixture until you achieve a smooth, harmonious blend of flavors. The roasted vegetables and seasoning will meld together to create a salsa that’s both vibrant and bold.
Ready to serve:
Pour the blended salsa into a serving bowl. Admire the rich color and aroma that will surely whet your appetite.
Grab a bag of your favorite tortilla chips or serve this salsa alongside your favorite meal. Its complex flavors will complement a variety of dishes, from tacos to grilled meats and beyond.
