Tomatillo Salsa Verde

1 hour & 15 minutes

6 — 8 oz (250 ml) jars

Print

An authentic Mexican salsa that’s zesty, spicy, and bright! Great with grilled or roasted meats, chicken or any dish that needs a flavourful, fiery boost. Look for fresh, seasonal tomatillos at your local Mexican specialty store, but in a pinch, simply swap with canned tomatillos that are found in most grocery stores.

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs (900 g) tomatillos
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 2 onions
  • 2 jalapeños
  • 2 - 3 tbsp Poco Picante Salsa Mix or Guacamole Dip Mix
  • 1 cup chopped cilantro
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 4 cups water

Preparation

  • Combine all ingredients in Multipurpose Pot. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer for 20–30 minutes, until tomatillos are very tender and mixture is thick. Working in batches, purée until smooth.
  • Ladle into hot, sterilized jars to within 1⁄2” of rim. Use a non-metallic utensil to remove any air bubbles. Wipe edges with a clean, damp cloth. Cover with prepared lids and screw bands, being careful not to over-tighten.
  • Place filled jars in the boiling water bath, adding more boiling water as needed to cover jars by about 1”. Bring to a boil again. Cover and continue boiling for 15 minutes. Lift jars out of water and place on cooling rack. Cool to room temperature.
