Homemade Salsa Verde Recipe.
You can cook Homemade Salsa Verde using 6 ingredients and 5 steps. Here is how you cook it.
Ingredients of Homemade Salsa Verde
- Prepare 1 1/2 pounds of tomatillos (about 12 medium), husked and rinsed.
- You need 1-2 of medium jalapeños, stemmed.
- Prepare 1/2 cup of chopped white onion (about ½ medium onion).
- Take 1/4 cup of packed fresh cilantro leaves (more if you love cilantro).
- Prepare 2 tablespoons of to ¼ cup lime juice (1 to 2 medium limes, juiced), to taste.
- You need 1/2-1 teaspoon of salt, to taste.
Homemade Salsa Verde instructions
- Preheat the broiler with a rack about 4 inches below the heat source. Place the tomatillos and jalapeño(s) on a rimmed baking sheet and broil until they’re blackened in spots, about 5 minutes..
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven, carefully flip over the tomatillos and pepper(s) with tongs and broil for 4 to 6 more minutes, until the tomatillos are splotchy-black and blistered..
- Meanwhile, in a food processor or blender, combine the chopped onion, cilantro, 2 tablespoons lime juice and ½ teaspoon salt. Once the tomatillos are out of the oven, carefully transfer the hot tomatillos, pepper(s) and all of their juices into the food processor or blender..
- Pulse until the mixture is mostly smooth and no big chunks of tomatillo remain, scraping down the sides as necessary. Season to taste with additional lime juice and salt, if desired..
- The salsa will be thinner at first, but will thicken up after a few hours in the refrigerator, due to the naturally occurring pectin in the tomatillos. If you’d like to make creamy avocado salsa verde, let the salsa cool down before blending in 1 to 2 diced avocados (the more avocado, the creamier it gets)..
