For a milder salsa, remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapeno before broiling. If you prefer a chunkier salsa, pulse the blended ingredients briefly instead of blending until completely smooth. This salsa is best served fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The flavors will meld and deepen over time.
