Salsa Verde

September 1, 2021 By Veronique

I received the most beautiful tomatillos from my friends at the Orleans Fruit Farm earlier this week and decided to create the most delicious salsa verde. If you have never had tomatillos before, they are tangier than regular tomatoes but they are perfect for fresh salsa. This salsa verde is delicious on just about anything but I love to put it on fish tacos or just to eat with some tortilla chips and a cold beer on a warm summer day.

Here is how this salsa verde is made:

Preheat your oven to 425F and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

Place your tomatillos, onion wedges and jalapeños on the cookie sheet.

Roast them in your preheated oven for 25 minutes flipping them over once at the 15 minute mark. You are looking for your tomatillos to be soft and have some nice colour to them.

Remove from oven and let cool on the cookie sheet for 10 minutes.

In the bowl of your food processor, add the roasted tomatillos, onion and jalapeno. Also add in the garlic, cilantro, lime juice, salt and pepper.

Pulse until you reach you desired texture. I like mine pretty smooth but not completely pureed.

Transfer your salsa verde to an air tight container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. I prefer to serve mine cold.

Serve and enjoy!
