Ingredients
- 1 pound tomatillos husks removed, rinsed and quartered
- 1 jalapeno pepper stemmed and quartered
- ¼ cup white onion minced
- ½ teaspoon salt or to taste
- ⅓ cup cilantro
Instructions
- Place the tomatillos and jalapeno in a large saucepan. Add enough water so that the vegetables just start to float. Bring to a boil and cook until pale in color, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer the tomatillos and ONE of the jalapeno quarters to a blender or food processor. Pulse until a chunky puree forms. Taste for heat. If you like your salsa hotter, add another piece of jalapeno. I added a whole pepper (seeds and all) and it's very spicy, so if you're sensitive to heat, don't add as much (or remove the seeds before boiling).
- Add the onion, salt and cilantro and pulse several times to combine. Taste for seasoning adding more salt if desired.
- Refrigerate salsa in a clean glass jar. Keeps for up to one week.
Notes
- Store salsa verde in a sealed jar in the refrigerator for up to one week.
