Recipe - Petin Salsa

10 (up to)
20 Petins
One fourth (up to)
One half Onion; chopped
Salt
One half Lime; juice of
Chopped celantro leaves
1 Smallmedium tomato;
chopped

My recipe for petin salsa is a handfull(1020) of petins, mashed in the
molcajete or bowl, add One fourth to One half onion chopped, add salt to cover onion
lightly, add One half lime as juice, mash up some more to denature the onion,
add chopped celantro leaves to taste(none if yur allergic), and 1 tomato
small to medium, chopped. mash to consistency you like. Ageing one day
improves flavor, and allows the lime juice and salt to make a vinegar that
permeates the mix. I cheat and add some Ms. Dash or spices of the day for
variety sometimes: try avocado and Grey Poupon or Gulden's Spicy mustard
for that "What the HELL IS this stuff look" on your guest's face! They'll
love it after they catch their breath..
