How to Make Green Tomatillo Salsa
- Preheat your broiler. Arrange tomatillos and chiles on a baking sheet 4 inches below the broiler.
- Broil for 5 minutes, until the tomatillos and chiles are darkly roasted and evenly blackened in spots.
- Flip the tomatillos and chiles and broil for another 4-5 minutes, or until they are splotchy-black, blistered, soft, and cooked through.
- Remove from the broiler and let cool slightly. Transfer the tomatillos and chiles to a blender, including any juices that have accumulated on the baking sheet.
- Add the cilantro and 1/4 cup of water to the blender. Blend until you reach a coarse puree. Don't over-process!
- Rinse the chopped white onion under cold water and shake gently to remove excess moisture.
- Stir the onion into the salsa. Season generously with salt, starting with 1/4 teaspoon and adding more to taste.
