Tomatillo Salsa Recipe:

Ingredients:

1 oz. chile de arbol peppers (dried), remove any stems
1 lb. tomatillos, peeled of outer paper and rinsed
1/2 to 1 tsp. lime juice
2 or more cloves garlic
1 tsp. salt or to taste
1/4 tsp. sugar
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped

Directions:

We are going to start with roasting the tomatillos and garlic. Peel and rinse the tomatillos and then cut them in half. Place them on a cookie sheet lined with foil, cut side up. Add the garlic cloves with the paper left on, to the pan.

Broil 4 inches from the heating element for 4 to 5 minutes. Turn the tomatillos over along with the garlic and roast an additional 4 to 5 minutes or until the tomatillos are charred.

Remove from the oven and let cool.

In the mean time, pour the chile de arbol into a pan with no oil over medium low heat. Watch these closely so they don't burn, turning them over frequently, cooking about 5 to 8 minutes or until you see some charring on the peppers.

Place the peppers into a bowl or pan of hot water to soak for 10 minutes. Dunk them so they are fully submerged.

After 10 minutes place the chile's into a blender without the water. Add the tomatillos including any juices from the pan as well as the salt, lime juice, the peeled garlic, and sugar.

Pulse the blender until chunky. Do not over blend. Then add the chopped cilantro and water from the drained peppers if you need to thin the salsa a bit. Blend until combined.

Taste and adjust salt, sugar, and lime juice to your liking.

This salsa goes great on any Mexican food and other foods like eggs, casseroles, burgers, hot dogs and any other foods you like.

Enjoy!
