Method

Preparation

1

Prepare Tomatillos

Remove the husks from the tomatillos and rinse them under cold water to remove any stickiness. Pat them dry with a paper towel.

2

Roast Tomatillos

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the tomatillos on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are soft and slightly charred.

3

Prepare Jalapeños and Garlic

While the tomatillos are roasting, cut the jalapeños in half and remove the seeds for less heat. Peel the garlic cloves.

Blending

Blend Ingredients

Once the tomatillos are roasted, add them to a blender along with the fresh cilantro, jalapeños, garlic, lime juice, salt, and olive oil. Blend until smooth.

Taste the salsa verde and adjust the seasoning as necessary. You can add more salt or lime juice according to your preference.
