Salsa Verde
Not only is a salsa verde superb as a dip, but it also makes one of the best chicken tacos around, and nothing is easier than making a taco.
- 1-2 serrano or jalapeño peppers
- 1 lb tomatillos, husked and rinsed
- 1 cup cilantro, packed
- 1 clove garlic, chopped
- 1/3 medium white onion, roughly chopped
- 3 tbsp lime juice
- 1/2 tsp ground coriander
- 1/2-1 tsp honey
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Stem the peppers and remove the seeds and membranes (where most of heat reside).
Put the whole lot into a blender and puree until quite smooth. Taste to adjust salt and lime juice. You’re done.
This salsa will stay fresh for a few days refrigerated, but it freezes very well too.
