Ingredients

  • 1 large poblano pepper
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1 cucumber – peeled, seeded, and diced
  • ½ cup onion, finely diced
  • 2 ½ pounds fresh ripe tomatoes – stemmed, peeled, and seeded
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, stemmed and chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, smashed
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1 teaspoon white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon ground cumin

Directions

Step 1
Rub the poblano pepper with olive oil. Roast over the gas flame of your stove, turning often, until the skin is black, 7 to 10 minutes. Place pepper into a paper bag and seal; set aside to cool, about 10 minutes.

Step 2
Combine cucumber and onion in a bowl. Set aside.

Step 3
Take cooled poblano from the bag and scrape off the burned skin. Remove stem and seeds; roughly chop the pepper.

Step 4
Place tomatoes, poblano, jalapeno, garlic, lime juice, sugar, salt, pepper, and cumin into the bowl of a food processor and pulse until thick and not runny. Add cucumber and onion; pulse 3 to 4 times to incorporate. Refrigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes. Serve.
