How to Make Roasted Garlic Green Tomato Salsa

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Halve 1 head of garlic and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Wrap in foil and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until soft and caramelized.
  3. While garlic roasts, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2-3 jalapeños, leaving stems intact, and roast for 5-7 minutes, turning frequently, until blistered and charred.
  4. Transfer jalapeños to a bowl of ice water to cool. Once cool enough to handle, peel off and discard the charred skin. Remove stems and finely dice.
  5. Core 2 pounds of green tomatoes and remove as many seeds as possible. Finely dice.
  6. Squeeze roasted garlic cloves from their skins and roughly chop.
  7. In a medium bowl, combine diced green tomatoes, diced jalapeños, chopped garlic, 1/2 cup chopped red onion, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Adjust salt to taste.
  8. Stir well to combine. Let the salsa sit for at least 1 hour (or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator) to allow the flavors to meld.
  9. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed before serving.
