Spicy Serrano Salsa Verde

tomatillos

serrano pepper

water

chiles de árbol

cilantro

salt

Remove tomatillos from husks and wash to remove the sticky residue.

Add tomatillos and serrano to saucepot and add water.

Boil on high heat for 15 minutes, until tomatillos and serrano are cooked through and turned a more yellow color.

Allow boiled tomatillos and serrano, in their cooking liquid, to cool down.

Add boiled tomatillos and serrano to the blender with ¼ cup of the cooking liquid, chiles de árbol, cilantro and salt.

Blend for 30-60 seconds, until completely blended and smooth.

Transfer to a bowl and serve immediately or allow flavors to sit in the fridge (cover the bowl) for a few hours.

Reminder: salsas get spicier as they sit, so while the habanero mango salsa may be mild or medium to begin with, it may get to a more hot level of heat over time.

Our Serrano Salsa has the perfect blend of rich tomato, cumin, garlic, cilantro, and onion flavors giving it a restaurant-quality taste you’re sure to love.
