Fresh Tomatillo Salsa Recipe










Ingredients:


ALL QUANTITIES APPROXIMATE

8 to 16 tomatilloes depending
1 on size.
12 chiles (2_serranos +
2 _jalapenos + 8_piquins) i
1 typically use
1 the serranos and jalapenos
1 green and the piquins red.
4 cloves garlic
1 small onion, really small, or half
1 medium onion.
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup cilantro

Instructions:

Roast above ingredients in a[n oil-free] cast iron pan, turning
occasionally. Leave husks on tomatillos while you roast 'em. The husks
will be nicely blackened, the skins translucent, and the fruits soft when
they're done. [Let me add: the goal is to blacken the skin while doing the
least tomatillo-exploding that you can. That way they don't lose juice into
the pan, that burns and smells sometimes. That means moving them around the
pan as they roast.]

Put roasted vegetables in food processor with: Salt 1/2 Teaspoon Cilantro
1/4 Cup and process briefly.

Transfer to a pot, and cook the mixture for 5 minutes. [This darkens it up
a bit, and mellows the flavors. It tastes too raw otherwise.]

e-mail at work, requesting the recipe. Here's the (slightly edited) reply
