This salsa, inspired by Gabriela Cámara’s Salsa Negra recipe in her cookbook “My Mexico City Kitchen,” is a versatile and flavorful addition to any meal. It has a perfect balance of heat and sweetness that enhances breakfast, lunch, dinner and everything in between. The spice level is moderate thanks to morita chiles — smoked, dried jalapeños — that add a smoky note to the salsa. Stir a dollop into scrambled eggs or spread on toasted bread leading up to avocado toast. As long as it’s refrigerated and the oil doesn’t go rancid, it keeps indefinitely. Keep a little out at room temperature so that its full flavors are expressed. This is a great time to splurge on pre-peeled garlic available at most supermarkets.
