Una receta

The five-pepper "Salsa de Cinco" that I made today:

-Three jalapeños, diced
-One poblano, diced
-One yellow pepper, diced
-One orange pepper, diced
-One habanero, diced

Sauté all peppers with olive oil and butter over medium-high heat until tender but not super-soft.

-Three beefsteak tomatoes, diced
-One cucumber, peeled and diced
-One medium-sized yellow onion, diced
-One bunch of fresh cilantro, chopped finally finely [whoops]
-~Half cup, minced garlic

Combine cooked and raw ingredients; stir thoroughly; let sit overnight.

Update tomorrow when we see how it goes over...

UPDATE: Success! But too hot for some. If you want a milder version, substitute red bell pepper for the habanero and add another cucumber, which will cut the heat a bit.

You mean "picante," yes? ("Caliente" = temperature-hot; "picante" = spicy-hot.)

This concludes today's episode of Stanley's Pedantry en español.
