Chop the chiles and mix with the garlic, onion, and salt. This can all be done in a food processor, although don't over blend it. This is a relish, not a sauce. Add oil if you want a rich taste and texture.
Let the mixture sit for 30 minutes or so. The individual flavors need time to blend. Store tightly covered, in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. If the salsa is to be kept any longer, stir in 1 tablespoon of vinegar.
