Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
TIP: A chile’s heat is not primarily in the seeds, but in the pithy ribs that the seeds are attached to. If you remove only the seeds, a hot chile will still be super spicy; remove the ribs as well if you want to minimize the heat. If you like super spicy salsa, use the larger amount of jalapeño and leave some or all of the ribs.
