   let me start by saying, i have never made a recipe before and was mostly just spitballing, so apologies!

   here goes:

   8 roma tomatoes

   1 medium yellow onion

   1 7oz can chipotle in adobo

   2 jalapeños, not seeded

   1 lime

   garlic powder

   paprika

   cilantro

   chile powder

   cumin

   splash of chicken stock

   first i charred the tomatoes and jalapeños in my cast iron, then added those and chopped onion, chipotle adobo and chicken stock to a blender, along with spices and lime juice to taste, and pulverized til they were a good and even consistency. then i stuck all that in my cast iron and let it simmer for about 45 minutes. here’s the result! it’s not exactly what i wanted, but for a haphazard salsa for a party tonight, i’m pretty happy with it!

   Looks awesome, friend. I’m gonna give it a shot.

   Also, get that acidity out of your cast iron ASAP.

   I would add guajillo chiles, cumin, dried coriander, epazote en rama,, Mexican oregano, Mexican cinnamon, and a splash of cider vinegar at the end.

   I posted a detailed recipe in here a few months ago that has been well received by real Mexicans.
