For a milder salsa, remove the seeds and membranes from the serrano peppers before cooking. Adjust the amount of cilantro and salt to your personal preference. This salsa is best when made fresh and served within a few days. For a smoky flavor, char the tomatoes and peppers under a broiler before boiling.
