Salsa Verde Cruda Recipes

Steps:

• Put the tomatillos in a blender first, then add the remaining ingredients. Pulse a few times, then blend until the salsa is very smooth, at least 1 minute. Season to taste with additional chile and salt, and blend again.

Steps:

• If making salsa verde, blend tomatillos, avocado, onion, garlic, chile, cilantro, and 1 tsp. Diamond Crystal or ½ tsp. Morton kosher salt in a blender on medium-low speed until salsa is smooth. Taste and season with more salt if needed. (Do not blend on higher than medium speed or your salsa will be airy and taste like a smoothie.)
• If making salsa roja, blend tomatoes, onion, garlic, chile, cilantro, 1 Tbsp. lime juice, and 1 tsp. Diamond Crystal or ½ tsp. Morton kosher salt in a blender on medium-low speed until salsa is smooth. Taste and season with more salt and lime juice if needed.
• Do Ahead: Salsa can be made 2 days ahead. Transfer to an airtight container; cover and chill.

Steps:

• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Lay tomatillos, Anaheim peppers, onions, jalapeno peppers, and garlic on a large rimmed baking sheet.
• Broil in the preheated oven until tomatillos release their juices, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove tomatillos and garlic from the baking sheet; flip Anaheim peppers, jalapeno peppers, and onions and return to the oven. Continue to broil until peppers are blackened, about 5 minutes more. Remove from the oven and let cool until safe to handle, about 5 minutes.
• Peel away blackened parts from vegetables without taking off too much flesh. Transfer tomatillos, Anaheim peppers, onions, jalapeno peppers, garlic, cilantro, lemon juice, and salt to a food processor and pulse until well combined and chopped. Refrigerate salsa until cold, at least 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Chop the herbs and garlic, mixing with 1 tsp sea salt, until very fine.
• Add the mustard and capers, and combine. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and stir in the olive oil.
• Add the vinegar, little by little, stirring and tasting as you go - trust your palate!

Steps:

• In a bowl combine all ingredients.
• Place in refrigerator for up to 12 hours.
• This will infuse all the flavors.
• Serve with tortilla chips.

Steps:

• Remove and discard the papery husks from the tomatillos; cut each in half and remove the hard parts surrounding the stem. Trim away and discard roots and tough stems from cilantro. Place tomatillos and cilantro in a blender along with lettuce, serrano peppers, and garlic clove. Slice the avocado open vertically, and twist the halves apart. Carefully whack a knife into the pit, twist to loosen, and remove the pit. Gently run a spoon between the flesh and the skin of the avocado until the flesh comes out in one piece. Repeat with the other half. Into the blender, add avocado halves, juice from the lime, and shallot.
• Blend to a chunky purée, 30 seconds, adding ½ teaspoon salt halfway through with the motor running. Taste and add remaining salt (or more) as needed. Makes about 2 cups Salsa Verde. (Store in airtight container for up to two days in the refrigerator.)

Steps:

• Stir together tomatoes, onion, chiles, cilantro, water, and 2 1/2 teaspoons salt. Season with more salt to taste.
