Pumpkin seed salsa (Ha' sikil pa'k} from Tu Casa Mi Casa: Mexican Recipes for the Home Cook (page 54) by Enrique Olvera

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    Can substitute Thai chiles for chiles de arbol.

    Excellent. Well rounded almost nutty flavor from the pumpkin seeds with good heat (but not excessive) from the chilis. The tomatoes and tomatillo don't have an assertive presence, but surely round out the flavor in subtle ways. The chili de arbol is intended to be fresh - which I've never seen to my knowledge - so I used the allowed Thai chili (aka scud/bird's eye, which is what I had in the fridge). As an aside, this book received a lot of undeserved criticism when it came out for being too simple, too oriented to the home cook. What I've made has been delicious.
