Mexican Take- Out Tomatillo Salsa

Features:
    Cuisine:

    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!
