The Best Fresh Tomatillo Salsa

1. 1

   Peel clean and quarter tomatillos. When buying tomatillos it is a good idea to check to make sure they are all good.

2. 2

   Peel garlic and cut jalapeno discarding seeds (add some of the seeds if you like your salsa extra hot).

3. 3

   Place tomatillos, garlic, onion and jalapeno in your food processor. With chopping blade pulse several times until consistency is fine and consistent.

4. 4

   Pour mixture into a sieve and drain off the liquid.

5. 5

   In a bowl combine tomatillo mixture with 1/2 to 1tsp salt, about 1/2 tsp black pepper, cilantro and the lime juice. I add as much of the lime pulp as I can because it tastes so great in the salsa.

6. 6

   Taste can be adjusted by adding more lime, garlic or jalapeno. If your tomatillos are especially sour you may add a little sugar.
