How to make Salsa Verde de Tomatillo
![]()
Okay…great recipe. So I’m sharing (& saving; my cooking moods change) for anyone looking for a good recipe. Although (and I KNOW…I SHOULD BE MAKING ALL HOMEMADE SALSA!) I #confess: I buy canned when it comes to green (aka verde) salsa. And I know fresh is better but I’m simply not typically in the mood for making it. I usually buy HERDEZ® Salsa Verde but if it’s not available I’ll do others …
Yes.. the homemade looks better too
One of these days
And yes…it does indeed go well with chicken!
Even if I have a piece of fried chicken.. I’ll bust out the salsa verde!
