The BEST Green Salsa Recipe!<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I don’t have many regrets in life but I recently discovered one: not planting tomatillos in our summer garden. I know, NBD but I REALLY love green salsa (aka salsa verde) and with the abundance of jalapeno peppers we have coming in I’m sad that my default is now regular red salsa. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don’t get me wrong, I love salsa of all types (no discrimination here) but if I had to choose I would always pick green salsa. But now I know for next year, tomatillos are getting planted!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also fun fact, tomatillos must be planted in twos as they aren’t self-pollinators and require a pair to pollinate! So looks like next year we’ll probably be adding in another garden bed. Plenty more green salsa to come!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Salsa Verde?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Salsa verde, which translates to “green sauce” in Spanish is a traditional sauce recipe in Mexican and Latin American cuisine. It typically is made from tomatillos, spicy chiles (usually jalape\u00f1o peppers), onion, garlic, cilantro and lime juice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Salsa verde is used as a condiment for many Mexican-inspired dishes like chicken enchiladas, tacos, grilled meats or served straight with tortilla chips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
