I would like a recipe for salsa verde,
Well i " googled" this one,...however i've never done this before so
i thought to post it and observe submissions.
I like it over wild rice and Avacados so i'm looking for something
tangy,but not overbearing,...suggestions?
Oh ya,...since i have a small barbie/pit i thought i'd find a way to
fire the tomitilos&peppers ect. with hickory,...this one might be
after i've gained a few rounds,...
Salse Verde
5 medium tomatillos
1 medium serrano chili
3 cloves unpeeled garlic
juice of 1/2 lime
1/2 medium onion minced
10 sprigs of cilantro minced
1 tsp Sea salt
Peel the husks off the tomatillos and wash/prep thoroughly.
Move the oven rack to the top position and turn on the broiler. Lay down a piece of foil onto the rack and turn up the edges to prevent juices from running off. Place the tomatillos, chili and garlic on the foil and broil until the skins charred. Flip everything over and char the other side.
Remove everything from the oven with the foil, being careful not to spill any of the liquid. Remove the core excess char from the tomatillos and mince with a sharp knife. Mince the chili and garlic and add to a bowl with the tomatillos. Add the lime juice, onions and cilantro then salt to taste.
Some thing i noticed here,...the use of foil/,...fore some reasons
conventional tools may be preferable over aluminum.

Sun, November 1, 2009 - 6:42 AMWhat I find fascinating about Salsa Verde (green sauce) is it's ancient history. Dating back to the Romans (adopted in Italy), it is however primarily though Mexican cooking that most Americans associate it with:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_sauce
We call it salsa verde but everyone knows that we are referring to a tomatillo sause in my area. It's great in chicken tamales.
