Fresh Tomato Salsa

This recipe was the featured sample at last week's pick ups!!

Ingredients:

• 2 to 3 medium sized fresh tomatoes (1 to 1 1/2 pounds), stems removed
• 1/2 red onion
• 2 serrano chiles or 1 jalapeño chile (stems, ribs, seeds removed), less or more to taste
• Juice of one lime
• 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Pinch dried oregano (crumble in your fingers before adding), more to taste
• Pinch ground cumin, more to taste

Instructions:

1. Prep the ingredients: Roughly chop the tomatoes, chiles, and onions. Be very careful while handling the chile peppers. Use disposable gloves, or wash your hands thoroughly with soap and hot water after handling and avoid touching your eyes for several hours.
2. Set aside some of the seeds from the peppers. If the salsa isn't hot enough, you can add a few for more heat.
3. Make the salsa: Place all of the ingredients in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the blade. Pulse only a few times, just enough to finely dice the ingredients and not enough to purée. If you don't have a food processor, you can finely dice by hand.
4. Adjust seasonings: Place in a serving bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste. If the chilies make the salsa too hot, add some more chopped tomato. If it's not hot enough, carefully add a few of the seeds from the chilies, or add a little more ground cumin.
5. Let the salsa sit for an hour (room temperature or chilled) for the flavors to combine.
