Fresh Tomatillo Salsa
I loooove tomatillo season! So excited when they showed up at our CSA this week 😍. Most tomatillo salsas are roasted, but I LOVE this fresh version.
FRESH TOMATILLO SALSA
2 cups tomatillos — husked, rinsed, and roughly chopped
2 large garlic cloves
1-2 jalapeños — seeded and roughly chopped (still pretty mild if you get all of the seeds and white part out)
2 limes — juiced
1 tsp salt
3ish springs of cilantro (optional)
1/2 small white onion
1 tbs sugar (optional— see note)
Purée the first 6 ingredients (everything except cilantro and onion) in food processor until smooth. Add onion and cilantro and pulse to desired consistency. Add more salt to taste.
NOTE— sometimes tomatillos can be bitter if they are not ripe enough. If your salsa tastes bitter, add a bit of sugar.
We enjoyed it with steak fajita bowls tonight and will finish the rest with chips 🤤🤤
