Servings: 10 servings
Ingredients
- 6 tomatillos
- 3 Jalapeños with stems cut off
- 1 cubanelle pepper
- 6 cloves garlic minced
- 1 bunch cilantro stems chopped off
- pinch salt
- 1 cup yellow onion diced
Instructions
- Place the tomatillos, cubanelle pepper and jalapeños in a pot with enough water to cover them. Bring to a boil and boil until soft, when the tomatillos change in color, about 5-7 min, it's ready.
- Drain and reserve about ½ cup of water. If you like chunkier salsa, add ¼ cup of water. Put the water in a blender or food processor along with the tomatillos, jalapeño, garlic, salt and cilantro.
- Blend until smooth. Pour into a food grade container, stir in the onions and serve with tacos, chips, quesadillas, you name it. It's also great in soups.
- The salsa will last 4-6 days in the fridge and 2 months in the freezer. Makes about 4 cups.
