Steps to Make It

Gather the ingredients.

Place the habanero pepper in a food processor or blender with the water, vinegar, lime juice, and 1 teaspoon each of the salt and sugar. Process until smooth.

In a large bowl, combine the tomatoes, onion, green onions, and cilantro. Toss with the pepper liquid and olive oil until well combined.

Season to taste with more salt, sugar, and black pepper.

Refrigerate the salsa in a covered container for at least 1 hour, or until ready to serve.

Notater

Too much liquid in the recipe, so we cut the vinegar significantly. But this led to too sweet a Salsa, plus still was very watery.
