homemade salsa verde
Ingredients:
- 10 tomatillos, husked and rinsed
- 1-2 jalapeños (adjust to taste)
- 1 small onion, quartered
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1-2 tablespoons lime juice (to taste)
- Consome (to taste)
Instructions:
1. Roast the Ingredients:
- Preheat a skillet or a dry pan over medium-high heat. Add the tomatillos and jalapeños (you can also roast the onion and garlic if you prefer a smoky flavor).
- Cook, turning occasionally, until the tomatillos are softened and charred, about 5-7 minutes.
2. Blend:
- In a blender or food processor, combine the roasted tomatillos, jalapeños, onion, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Blend until smooth or to your desired consistency.
3. Taste and Adjust:
- Taste the salsa and adjust the seasoning with more lime juice or salt if needed.
4. Serve:
- Serve immediately with tortilla chips, tacos, or your favorite dishes. Salsa verde can be stored in the refrigerator for about a week.
Tips:
- If you prefer a milder salsa, remove the seeds from the jalapeños before roasting.
- If you prefer a hotter salsa, add more jalapeños
Enjoy your homemade salsa verde!
