How to make Salsa with Tomatillos

Prep for Salsa Verde Recipe

• Remove the husk from the tomatillos and rinse well.
• Bring a pot of water to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and carefully drop the tomatillos in the boiling water. Cover and simmer for 3-5 minutes, or till the tomatillos change color, and turn pale green.
• Remove the tomatillos with a slotted spoon. Allow the tomatillos to cool for 5-10 minutes.

Blend the ingredients

• In a blender jar, add the tomatillos, garlic, serrano pepper, habanero pepper (optional), chipotle pepper (optional), lime juice, and salt to taste. Blend to a semi-smooth consistency.
• Next, add chopped onions, and cilantro. Pulse a few times until all the ingredients are well combined. Adjust the seasoning, lime juice, and salt to taste.

Serve Salsa Verde

• Serve it with tortilla chips, as a veggie dip, on a burrito bowl, or with breakfast tacos or frittatas.
• Serve immediately or refrigerate for later use: Salsa Verde can be served immediately after preparation to enjoy its fresh flavors. If you plan to serve it later, cover the bowl with plastic wrap or an airtight lid and refrigerate it until needed.

  Note: Salsa thickens upon refrigeration.
