Puree again and add 1 teaspoon salt. To prepare Fire Roasted Tomato Chipotle Salsa, in saute pan over medium heat, place 1 tablespoon virgin olive oil. Add 1/2 onion (chopped) and saute until caramelized, about 10 minutes. In food processor or blender, place onion, 1 pound blackened Roma tomatoes and 4 teaspoons finely minced roasted garlic.

Pulse until finely chopped but not pureed. Add 1/2 cup minced fresh cilantro leaves and 4 chopped chipotle chilies en adobo; pulse to mix. Peel, seed and chop 1 pound Roma tomatoes and add to mixture with 1/4 cup virgin olive oil, 1/4 cup red wine vinegar, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon sugar.
