Why? Because you can! And pickle, and jam, or otherwise celebrate the resurgence of the domestic arts our forebears held so dear. Put on your best apron and step into our kitchen, won't you?
I like Mexican-style salsas with dried red chilies and tomatoes blended smooth. Chopped onion and mild green peppers add texture, while hot red and green peppers round out the flavor. Everything gets charred in the broiler or on the grill.
Harissa is a piquant, hot Tunisian paste made from dried chiles and toasted spices. It’s traditionally served with kebabs, couscous and tagines. And it's super easy.
This is a smokin' good canned tomato salsa with a kick from the ancho chili. Serve it with tortilla chips or spoon it over a pepper and onion frittata.
