I wanted a verde style salsa, but living in Germany, I was not able to find tomatillos. This green salsa is great on eggs, used as a marinade, or just eaten with tortilla chips. Its heat is somewhere in the middle between mild and hot. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Ingredients

  • 10 freshs jalapeno peppers
  • 2 tomatoes
  • 1 white onion , quartered
  • 0.25 cups chopped fresh cilantro , or more to taste
  • 2 cloves garlic , smashed
  • 1 lime , juiced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place jalapenos in a saucepan with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil. Simmer until jalapenos soften and begin to lose their shine, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove the jalapenos with a slotted spoon, chop off the stem, and place them in a blender. Add the tomatoes and boil for 2 to 3 minutes to loosen the skin. Peel the skin from the tomatoes and add tomatoes to the blender.

  2. 2

    Place the onion, cilantro, garlic, lime juice, salt, and black pepper in the blender with the jalapenos and tomatoes. Blend to desired consistency.
