Briefly rinse the chile under cold water and pat it dry.
Seed and Dice the chile and add it to the bowl. You can also
roast the chiles for a smokier flavor. Use one jalapeño for mild salsa or 2-3 jalapeños or one serrano chile for medium salsa. For hot salsa, use 5 jalapenos or 2-3 serrano chiles. For extra hot salsa, use one habanero.
