Ninfas Green Sauce

    I LOVED this recipe. I only used two jalapeos and it was plenty spicy. I didnt de-seed or core them. I also only used a heaping half cup of sour cream. It gets less spicy and better tasting as it cools down. Everyone at my party loved it and it does taste like ninfas or gringos green sauce. I could drink the stuff!

    Ninfa’s Green Sauce,This green sauce is popular in many Mexican restaurants around Houston. Ninfa’s was one of the first to serve this sauce. The recipe has been printed in the Houston Chronicle several times. I’ve adapted it slightly. Mama Ninfa Rodriquez Laurenzo opened the original Ninfa’s Restaurant on Navigation street in 1973. Her food differed from the usual Tex-Mex restaurants in town. She seemed to achieve fame in the kitchen overnight. Some of her famous guests included George Bush, Michael Douglas, John Travolta, Rock Hudson, and Aerosmith! Mama Ninfa lost her battle with cancer last year, but her much loved Mexican food lives on. The original Ninfa’s is still there, and there are several other locations here in Houston as well.,I LOVED this recipe. I only used two jalapeos and it was plenty spicy. I didnt de-seed or core them. I also only used a heaping half cup of sour cream. It gets less spicy and better tasting as it cools down. Everyone at my party loved it and it does taste like ninfas or gringos green sauce. I could drink the stuff!,I’m thinking their sour cream must be thinner than mine because it was too much (this coming from a girl who can eat sour cream by the spoonful). I’ve made this several times and love it. This last time I forgot to buy green tomatoes but doubled up on the tomatillos and I actually liked the slight tanginess of it better
