It's great for making enchiladas verdes or for topping carne asada tacos. We also think it is great on eggs. Salsa Verde originated from Mexico and is a green salsa, usually tomatillo based (unlike a red tomato based salsa). It is usually used as a chip dip or on tacos (I also love it on enchiladas, fajitas, tostadas and chimichangas!) This is a roasted version of green salsa - nothing overly roasted or too far blackened for my liking, just a fair char on two sides.
Salsa Verde instructions
