I planted tomatillos for the first time this year and they really took off, so I decided to make salsa verde. I pretty much followed a combination of these two recipes by J. Kenji LĂłpez-Alt and Not Another Cooking Show.
Ingredients are: tomatillos, poblanos, anaheims, serranos, a jalapeño, onions, and garlic (all from my garden). Tossed them in sunflower oil and kosher salt and broiled them for 10-15 minutes to get a char (sorry, I forgot to take a picture after I charred them). Then added them to the blender with a bunch of cilantro, and some lime juice, and some more salt.
It turned out great. My mother-in-law hates spicy food (like 0 stars at an Indian or Thai restaurant) she said this was too spicy, but kept coming back for more because she said it was so good.
Edit: left out anaheims.

I thought those were peas for a second. That is some good looking salsa.

It’s gorgeous. Reminds me that I need to make some verde soon. What do you like to do with it?

Make a shrimp taco with your salsa verde, cooked shrimp, chopped raw onion, cilantro, and maybe some serrano pepper to taste.
It’ll be AWESOME.

I did the same thing this year. I can’t find fresh tomatillos where I live in Portugal so I grew my own (jalapeños too). The tomatillos were smaller than what I was used to seeing at the markets, but the flavor was just as good or better. Four plants produced more that I could handle, so I gave many away.
I followed a similar recipe from [inspiredtaste.net](https://inspiredtaste.net). Both their salsa verde and chicken enchilada recipes are very good and easy to follow.
