Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 1 large poblano pepper

  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

  • 1 cucumber - peeled, seeded, and diced

  • ½ cup onion, finely diced

  • 2 ½ pounds fresh ripe tomatoes - stemmed, peeled, and seeded

  • 1 jalapeno pepper, stemmed and chopped

  • 3 cloves garlic, smashed

  • 1 lime, juiced

  • 1 teaspoon white sugar

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin

Directions

  1. Rub the poblano pepper with olive oil. Roast over the gas flame of your stove, turning often, until the skin is black, 7 to 10 minutes. Place pepper into a paper bag and seal; set aside to cool, about 10 minutes.

  2. Combine cucumber and onion in a bowl. Set aside.

  3. Take cooled poblano from the bag and scrape off the burned skin. Remove stem and seeds; roughly chop the pepper.

  4. Place tomatoes, poblano, jalapeno, garlic, lime juice, sugar, salt, pepper, and cumin into the bowl of a food processor and pulse until thick and not runny. Add cucumber and onion; pulse 3 to 4 times to incorporate. Refrigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes. Serve.
