Salvadoran Salsa Roja

Name: Salvadoran Salsa Roja
Cuisine: American, Mexican, Latin American
Ingredients: 5 medium ripe tomatoes, quartered; ½ medium white onion, coarsely chopped; 2 serrano chiles, coarsely chopped; 1 garlic clove; 5 teaspoons chicken bouillon powder or 2 Tbsp. plus 1/2 tsp. Diamond Crystal or 4 tsp. Morton kosher salt; 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions

The chicken bouillon, though optional, adds a hint of umami and a richness that you won’t get otherwise, perhaps thanks to the MSG most brands contain (no judgment!).
