original recipe: pick fresh foods

1 T evoo

1 lb fresh tomatillos {about 8ish}

2 jalapeños

2 garlic cloves, minced

8 green onions, stems & scallions, rough chopped

1 bunch cilantro, including stems, rough chopped

1 lime of juice

1 tsp salt

1. to prepare a fresh tomatillo, remove the paper husk & rinse with warm water to remove the sticky coating.  place tomatillos & jalapeños on a foil-lined baking sheet, lightly sprinkled with 1 T-ish evoo.  

2. broil the tomatillos & jalapeños on high for about 8 minutes, flipping everything over in the middle, once the sides have started to brown.  remove when the char looks lovely.  de-seed the jalapeños at this point to make sure your salsa isn't crazy spicy.  

3. add roasted tomatillos, jalapeños, garlic cloves, green onions, & cilantro to the food processor.  pulse a few times until the tomatillos are well-processed.  add the lime juice & salt.  pulse a few more times until the salsa is consistent.  taste to make sure it's delicious.  enjoy!
