Directions
Mexican Take-Out Tomatillo Salsa, Tomatillos – small spherical green fruits that are surrounded by paperlike husks – are the key to this spicy, sweet-tart salsa From the Take-Out Menu Cookbook, I’d say this tastes like Salsa Heaven!! Tart, spicy-sweet, and something I’d expect to see served at my favorite Mexican restaurant! I substituted jalapenos for serranos, leaving out some of the seeds and membranes to keep at our preferred level of zinginess Also I reduced the sugar to 3/4 teaspoon then forgot to add water in Step 4, but that made for thicker salsa without having to boil it down I did still simmer the salsa, per Step 5, in my cast iron skillet and am VERY pleased with this recipe Thanks so much!, I’d say this tastes like Salsa Heaven!!
