How to Make Salsa De Mirasol
- Snip the stems from 10-12 aji mirasol chiles. Cut each chile lengthwise, remove the ribs and seeds.
- Cut the chiles into 1-inch pieces and place them in a heat-proof bowl.
- Pour boiling water over the chiles until just covered. Let stand for 30 minutes.
- Transfer the chiles to a blender, reserving ¾ cup of the soaking liquid.
- Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the blender and blend until completely smooth.
- Strain the blended mixture through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing gently to extract all the pureed chile.
- Discard the pulp remaining in the sieve.
- Whisk in ¼ cup olive oil, ½ cup finely chopped white onion, the juice of 2 limes, and additional salt to taste.
- Add ½ cup chopped fresh cilantro, ¼ cup chopped fresh mint, and ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley. Stir gently to combine.
- Allow the salsa to sit for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and deepen. Serve and enjoy!
