For a milder salsa, remove the seeds and membranes from the habanero pepper before mincing. You can also substitute with a jalapeño pepper for a less intense heat. If fresh apricots are not available, you can use good-quality dried apricots, rehydrated in warm water for about 30 minutes and then diced. This salsa is best served chilled or at room temperature. It can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
