• whisk together the kosher salt and warm water until the salt dissolves, set aside and allow to cool to room temperature. this is called the salmuera.
• combine the flat leaf parsley, garlic, and olive oil in the bowl of a food processor, and pulse several times to chop up the parsley. add the roasted red peppers, paprika, oregano, crushed red pepper, black pepper, cumin, white vinegar, and red vinegar. continue to pulse the food processor until the ingredients are well combined, but still chunky.
