For a milder salsa, remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapeño peppers before roasting. If you don't have a broiler, you can roast the vegetables in a 400°F (200°C) oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until they are softened and slightly charred. This salsa can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to control the level of heat in the salsa. Experiment with other types of peppers, such as serrano or habanero, for a different flavor profile. For an even smokier flavor, try grilling the vegetables instead of broiling them.
