Date: Wed, 10 Apr 1996 17:35:43 -0400 From: Nathan Freedenberg <nfberg@chilepepper.com> Here's a recipe for the smoked habs. I did cheat and just played cut and paste from some promo literature I have. Sitting at my desk examining the first smoked habanero we had ever received I was suddenly inspired to try this roasted, toasted and smoked concept. It's taken quite a few batches to perfect. And now it's one of my favorites. My friends like this one quite a bit so I know the heat level is not all that high. You can always add a few more smoked habanero to increase the heat. I like to deseed my tomatoes. Some people will find that tedious but I don't mind and I think it makes for a better looking Salsa with a lot less moisture. Mix everything thoroughly and taste. The flavors have not yet blended but you can get idea of the salt you will need. Cover and refrigerate for a few hours. The heat level starts to wane after 24 hours. I'm not sure why. This effect makes this a prepare and serve today salsa. Serve with your favorite chips. Makes enough for one regular sized bag of chips. CHILE-HEADS DIGEST V2 #290 From the Chile-Heads recipe list.

“We can do nothing, we say sometimes, we can only pray. That, we feel, is a terribly precarious second-best. So long as we can fuss and work and rush about, so long as we can lend a hand, we have some hope; but if we have to fall back upon God — ah, then things must be critical indeed! #A.J. Gossip”
