TOMATILLO SALSA

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.
FRESH TOMATILLO SALSA
Ever wondered what to do with tomatillos- also known as tomates verdes? I learned this wonderful salsa recipe from a friend from Mexico. It is a tangy, herby salsa that goes great with quesadillas, tacos and burritos of all kinds. I've even used it in scrambled eggs by cooking it a bit to reduce the liquid and tone down some of the green tang. Yum! This recipe does have some heat from the chiles, but this can be modified to taste. If you hate heat, leave them out. If you like very little heat, try using a poblano chile. If you like a slight bite, I would use jalapeno chiles, and cut them open and remove the seeds. If you want more heat, leave in the seeds. If you want to go hotter than that, I would try serrano chiles. If you want hotter than that, I'm sure you know what chiles to use. lol Another note: like all produce, tomatillos can vary in flavor and tang. Taste the salsa..if you think there's too much tang, try adding some more onion and herb. If you like less cilantro, feel free to reduce. This recipe was shown to me in handfuls and bunches, so it is very flexible. To store it, I simply keep it in an old mayonnaise jar in the fridge.

Steps:
- Remove the husks from the tomatillos and wash all the stickiness from the outside. Cut into quarters to make blending easier.
- Wash cilantro and green onions well, and rough chop cilantro and cut onions into thirds.
- Prep green chilies by cutting them in half. Remove seeds and white interior veins if you want the chilies to be less hot.
- Blend all in the blender, the idea is to get a nice grind, not a paste, so pulse works well. I'm sure you could use a food processor, but this salsa usually turns out quite liquidy because of the tomatillos. I know my food processor would make a mess.
- If you do find that the salsa is not blending well because of lack of liquid, you can add lime juice or water 1 tablespoon at a time. Tomatillos are tangy by themselves, so keep that in mind when using lime juice. Usually the tomatillos have enough liquid in them to facilitate blending, and putting them first in the blender will help.
- Add salt to taste and enjoy!

TOMATILLO SALSA
This is a standard Mexican salsa that you find everywhere in Mexico. Tomatillos have a natural acidic and fresh note that gives them a little sparkle. (They keep that sparkle even after they're cooked.) Tomatillo salsa is a natural with the flavors of grilled meat, but it is a great do-ahead, have-on-hand salsa to freshen up anything off the grill or out of a skillet.

Steps:
- Pull the husks from the tomatillos and wash them under cool water until they no longer feel sticky. Cut them into quarters and put them into the work bowl of a food processor. Add the onion and garlic and process until smooth. Add the cilantro, jalapeno and lime juice and process until the jalapeno is finely chopped.
- Scrape the mixture into a small saucepan. Season lightly with salt and bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid is boiled off and the salsa looks relish-y, about 15 minutes. Cool before using. The sauce can be refrigerated for up to 1 week. If refrigerated, you may want to add a little salt and/or lime juice to the salsa before serving.

Steps:
- Peel clean and quarter tomatillos. When buying tomatillos it is a good idea to check to make sure they are all good.
- Peel garlic and cut jalapeno discarding seeds (add some of the seeds if you like your salsa extra hot).
- Place tomatillos, garlic, onion and jalapeno in your food processor. With chopping blade pulse several times until consistency is fine and consistent.
- Pour mixture into a sieve and drain off the liquid.
- In a bowl combine tomatillo mixture with 1/2 to 1tsp salt, about 1/2 tsp black pepper, cilantro and the lime juice. I add as much of the lime pulp as I can because it tastes so great in the salsa.
- Taste can be adjusted by adding more lime, garlic or jalapeno. If your tomatillos are especially sour you may add a little sugar.

ROASTED TOMATILLO SALSA
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Add the tomatillos to a baking sheet along with the jalapenos and onion wedges. Toss with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and roast about 7 minutes. Turn the vegetables, add the garlic and roast until everything is slightly softened and charred, another 7 to 8 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- Peel the garlic and remove the stems and seeds from the jalapenos. Add the roasted vegetables to the bowl of a food processor and pulse until still slightly chunky but well combined. Add the cilantro, lime juice and 1 teaspoon salt and pulse until incorporated. With the processor running, stream in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil until the salsa is slightly runny but not smooth. At this point you can season with additional salt if desired.
- Serve with chips or as a salsa for tacos and burritos.
SALSA VERDE: GREEN TOMATILLO SALSA
Steps:
- Whether you choose the verdant, slushy, herby freshness of the all-raw tomatillo salsa or the oil-colored, voluptuous, sweet-sour richness of the roasted version, tomatillos are about brightening tang. The buzz of the fresh hot green chile adds thrill, all of which adds up to a condiment most of us simply don't want to live without.
- For the All-Raw version: Roughly chop the tomatillos and the chiles. In a blender or food processor, combine the tomatillos, chiles, cilantro and 1/4 cup water. Process to a coarse puree, then scrape into a serving dish. Rinse the onion under cold water, then shake to remove excess moisture. Stir into the salsa and season with salt, usually a generous 1/4 teaspoon.
- For the Roasted version:
- Preheat a broiler.
- Roast the tomatillos and chiles on a baking sheet 4 inches below a very hot broiler until darkly roasted, even blackened in spots, about 5 minutes. Flip them over and roast the other side, 4 to 5 minutes more will give you splotchy-black and blistered tomatillos and chiles. In a blender or food processor, combine the tomatillos and chiles, including all the delicious juice that has run onto the baking sheet. Add the cilantro and 1/4 cup water, blend to a coarse puree, and scrape into a serving dish. Rinse the onion under cold water, then shake to remove the excess moisture. Stir into the salsa and season with salt, usually a generous 1/4 teaspoon.
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.

TOMATO TOMATILLO SALSA
Tomatilla is a widely used ingredient in South America, according to my Canadian Living magazine from two years ago! It's a generic thing to say, since I'm sure each country has it's own way of using it.

TOMATILLO SALSA FRESCA
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.
