Looks like the peaches are in full swing here, loml came back from the farmers market with a 20lb box!
So its time for some Peach Salsa.
50% peaches
50% vine ripe tomatoes (roma or other meaty ones are best, but saladinies or whatever you have will work.. to juicy you might want to de-seed/juice a bit)
Chop and mix
Add chopped Onions to taste
Add peppers jalapeno, red chili, green chili, pasilla bajio (a garden favorite they taste just a smidge chocolaty), etc.. to taste
I like a bit of dried pepper as well, chili powder (mostly dried poblano) works well
A squeeze or three of lime or lacking that a spritz of vinegar.
Mix thoroughly, refrigerate 4-12 hours or 20 minutes if you can't wait that long.
Enjoy with some corn chips.
You can also make fresh corn chips - take some tortillas, chop into corn chip sized pieces, heat some oil (~3 inches works well) in a dutch oven until a scrap of tortilla tossed in it bubbles vigorously. Fry in smallish batches to not overwhelm the oil and push down into the oil with a slotted spoon. Drain in a basket and salt lightly.
