TOMATILLO SALSA



Tomatillo Salsa image

I was looking for a tomatillo salsa recipe for canning & couldn't find one that suited our Taste so, I came up this this one. Everyone that has tried it likes it. We have a lot of tomatillos in the garden, so I wanted a way to use them.

Categories     Sauces

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 Pints

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 cups tomatillos, chopped
3 cups onions, chopped
3 jalapeno peppers, chopped
6 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
1/2 cup lemon juice
2 teaspoons cumin
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in a large pot & stir frequently over high heat until mixture boils.
  • Reduce heat.
  • Simmer 20 minutes.
  • Ladle into pint jars.
  • Leave 1/2 inch head space.
  • Adjust lids, process in a hot water bath for 20 minutes.
  • Be sure to wear gloves when chopping peppers as they will burn fingers.
  • Also, have good ventilation when cooking--I have found this to be true when cooking ALL salsa.
  • I use a food processor for chopping.
  • If you want it hotter use more jalapeños & you can use more or less cumin, as cumin makes it hot, BUT gives a good flavor.

SALSA DE TOMATILLO

This is the 'salsa de tomatillo' that I grew up with.

Delicioso!

QUICK FRESH TOMATILLO SALSA



Quick Fresh Tomatillo Salsa image

Tomatillos, which are closer botanically to the gooseberry than to the tomato, have a wonderful acidic tang. To get the best out of them they should be simmered or grilled for about 10 minutes, until they're soft and the color has gone from pale green to olive. You can use them for a quick, blended salsa (like the one in this recipe) and also for a cooked salsa, which has a rounder, seared flavor. Use on tacos, or as chip or vegetable dip, or alongside grilled chicken or pork.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     condiments

Time 45m

Yield 2 cups, serving 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound tomatillos, husked and rinsed
2 to 4 jalapeño or serrano chiles, seeded for a milder salsa, coarsely chopped
1/4 cup chopped onion, soaked for 5 minutes in cold water, drained and rinsed
1/4 to 1/2 cup coarsely chopped cilantro (to taste)
Salt to taste (about 1/2 teaspoon)
1/4 to 1/2 cup water, as needed

Steps:

  • Place the tomatillos in a saucepan, cover with water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 8 to 10 minutes, flipping them over halfway through, until softened and olive green. Remove from the heat. Transfer to a blender. Add the chiles, onion, cilantro, and 1/4 cup water to the blender and blend to a coarse puree. Transfer to a bowl, add salt, and thin out as desired with water. Taste and adjust salt, and set aside for at least 30 minutes before serving, to allow the flavors to develop.

ROASTED TOMATILLO AND GARLIC SALSA



Roasted Tomatillo and Garlic Salsa image

Tomatillos, lots of garlic and spicy jalapenos charred under the broiler give this salsa a rich, earthy flavor. If you like your salsa very hot, added roasted Jamaican scotch bonnets instead of the jalapeno.

Provided by SairajB

Categories     Appetizers and Snacks     Dips and Spreads Recipes     Salsa Recipes     Salsa Verde Recipes

Time 40m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound fresh tomatillos, husks removed
1 head garlic cloves, separated and peeled
3 fresh jalapeno peppers
1 bunch fresh cilantro
½ cup water, or as needed
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven's broiler. Arrange the whole cloves of garlic, tomatillos, and jalapenos on a baking sheet. Place under the broiler, and cook for a few minutes. Remove garlic cloves first, as soon as they are toasted, to avoid developing a bitter flavor. Continue to roast jalapenos and tomatillos until evenly charred, turning occasionally. Set aside to cool. Don't remove the charred parts of the tomatillos or the peppers. They add a really nice flavor.
  • Place peppers and tomatillos in a blender with the garlic and cilantro. Add a little water to the mixture if necessary to facilitate blending. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until serving.

Provided by My Food and Family

Categories     Salsa Recipes

Time 30m

Yield 3-1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb. tomatillos, husks removed
1 large onion, cut into quarters
8 cloves garlic, peeled
2 Anaheim pepper
1 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/2 cup HEINZ Distilled White Vinegar
1 tsp. ground cumin
1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes
1/2 cup water, more or less as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 500°F. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray. Place the tomatillos, onion, garlic, and peppers on the baking sheet. Roast 15-20 minutes, or until the tomatillos have charred slightly and are starting to release their juices. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
  • After the peppers have cooled, carefully peel off the skin. It's a good idea to wear gloves to prevent getting spicy pepper juice on your hands and then inadvertently rubbing it in your eyes. If you want your salsa spicier, leave the pepper seeds in, or for a milder salsa scrape them out.
  • Add the tomatillos, peppers, onions, and garlic to a blender or food processor. Add the cilantro, lime juice, vinegar, salt, cumin, and red pepper flakes, and pulse until it's as chunky or smooth as you would like it. Add water as needed to thin to desired consistency.
  • Pour the mixture into a medium saucepan and heat to a boil. If you're planning to refrigerate the salsa, ladle into clean containers, then let cool. Use within one week.
  • CANNING DIRECTIONS:
  • Bring boiling-water canner, half full with water, to simmer. Wash jars and screw bands in hot soapy water; rinse with warm water. Pour boiling water over flat lids in saucepan off the heat. Let stand in hot water until ready to use. Drain jars well before filling.
  • To use this recipe for canning, start by doubling the recipe. After the salsa reaches a boil , ladle into sterilized jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Add sterilized lids and bands. Process in a water bath canner for a minimum of 15 minutes, adding 5 minutes for each 2000 feet of altitude above sea level. Let cool, then store in a cool, dry place. Use within six months.

TOMATILLO SALSA



Tomatillo Salsa image

Categories     condiment

Time 20m

Yield 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 tomatillos (about 1 pound), husked and rinsed
6 scallions
2 jalapenos
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for drizzling
Kosher salt
1 cup packed fresh cilantro leaves and stems
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 cloves garlic, peeled
Juice of 2 limes

Steps:

  • Set up your grill for even medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, distribute the coals evenly. If using a gas grill, heat both sides evenly.
  • Place the whole tomatillos, scallions and jalapenos on a cooling rack in a single layer. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Place the cooling rack on the grill and cook, pulling the cooling rack off the grill to flip the vegetables, until softened and charred on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Using a knife, scrape off the skin from the jalapenos. If you want the salsa to be spicy, leave in the seeds. If you do not, remove the seeds and ribs from the jalapenos.
  • To a blender or a food processor, add the tomatillos, scallions, jalapenos, cilantro, cumin, garlic, lime juice and olive oil. Blend until a salsa forms. Blend as much as you need to reach the consistency of the salsa you like. Add salt to taste. The sauce will keep in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

TOMATILLO SALSA FRESCA



Tomatillo Salsa Fresca image

A fresh tomatillo salsa that is very easy to make using a blender. I dislike cooked tomatillos for two reasons: they lose their lovely green color and the texture to me is unsatisfactory. The beauty of tomatillo salsa is that it's cheap to prepare and it freezes well. Adapted from 1,000 Vegetarian Recipes.

Provided by COOKGIRl

Categories     Sauces

Time 10m

Yield 1 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb tomatillo (approximately 10-12 medium tomatillos)
1/3 cup white onion, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup cilantro leaf, lightly packed (NOT dried)
1 jalapeno pepper (for extra "kick", I use serrano and jalapeno, but any green chili pepper will do)
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • First prepare the tomatillos. Remove papery husks and then rinse tomatillos under warm running water, using your fingers to remove the sticky residue. Remove stems.
  • Chops into quarters.
  • Place all the ingredients into a blender or food processor.
  • Blend either coarse or smooth, depending on your preference.
  • Transfer tomatillo salsa to covered container and refrigerate at least 3 hours. Good with tortilla chips, enchiladas, tacos, etc.
  • I always triple the recipe and freeze in 8 ounce containers.

AUTHENTIC TOMATILLO SALSA

I stayed with the Ceja family a few years ago because I was nosing in on a documentary that was being filmed about their amazing family vineyard and Latino heritage. Amelia Ceja cooked meal after meal of scrumptious food, but unfortunately, this salsa is the only recipe I took away with me. It's soo good, and pretty easy to make. The tomatillos should really be done on a smoking-hot grill so you can get that smoky flavor. Yum.
