    Salsa Verde

    The Best Salsa Verde Recipe in the World!

    Do you know tomatillos? They greatly differ from green tomatoes, which are simply not ripe. However, both types can be used in this delicious and authentic salsa verde recipe!

    Indeed, tomatillos and green tomatoes are interchangeable in this Mexican recipe. Just make sure to use about 1 lb (454 g) of the one you choose. This salsa is super simple to make and easily replaces shop-bought alternatives, which often contain too much sodium

    What to eat with salsa verde?

    Salsa verde goes marvellously well with nachos, fajitas, and tacos. It could also make a great sauce base for a Mexican-style pizza! Try it with a salmon fillet as well. 

    Do not hesitate to enhance the flavours by adding some lemon or lime juice, to taste.

    SIMPLY DELICIOUS: Do you love Mexican cuisine? Try this quick vegetarian chili, this mason jar taco salad, these chilaquiles, this cripsy corn guacamole, or these huevos rancheros on cauliflower tortillas!
