Enjoy this almost-traditional salsa with chips, or top a taco or two.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds tomatillos
- 4 garlic cloves
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 2 small jalapeños
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar (reduce to 2 tablespoons if not canning)
- 1/4 cup lime juice
Method
Husk, wash and dry tomatillos. Press garlic cloves with the heel of the hand and leave in jackets. Slice onion in half. Leave jalapeño whole.
In a pan arrange veggies in a single layer and turn to medium-high heat. Rotate with tongs until cooked through and tomatillos are softened. Remove from heat.
Stem and deseed jalapeño and remove jackets from garlic.
Place all ingredients in a blender with remaining spices and liquids. Blend until desired consistency, chunky or puréed. Taste, correct seasoning, serve.
