The Good News Not only are the canned tomatoes here more convenient than raw ones, they're also more nutritious: Cooked tomatoes contain more of the antioxidant lycopene. Tim Cushman combines them with earthy marjoram leaves for a salsa that's terrific with pork tenderloin.
- 2 poblano chiles
- One 28-ounce can whole tomatoes, drained
- 1/2 cup finely diced onion
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh marjoram
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 small pickled jalapeño, stemmed
- Salt
- Roast the poblanos directly over a gas flame, turning, until charred all over. Transfer the chiles to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let steam for 15 minutes.
- Peel, core and seed the chiles and transfer to a blender. Add the tomatoes, onion, cilantro, marjoram, cumin, sugar and jalapeño to the blender and puree until smooth. Season the salsa with salt and serve.
