Salsa Verde

My sister makes a really tasty homemade SalsaVerde. I've never attempetd to make it because that was her thing, but now that she lives in a different continent and I'm moving, I think I'll try to make it myself. I hope she doesn't kill me for posting this!

Jazibe's Salsa Verde

2 cans of tomatillos

4 or more jalapeños, boiled until soft, reserve the liquid


1/2 tsp of sugar

garlic salt to taste


Put all of the ingridients plus about 1/4 cup of the jalapeño's liquid in the blender, blend well or not, depending if you want a more chunkier salsa (you can add more liquid if you want to). Taste and adjust seasoning, if it's too acidic for your taste add a little bit more sugar, if it's too bland add more boullion and/or garlic salt.


This salsa is great with chips, but you can also add it to guacamole (or just plain mashed avocados with salt, maybe a litte sour cream to make it creamier, yum!).

If you don't have the time or inclination to make your own salsa try this brand, it's not bad at all.

Congratulations, you have matched!

Eso era todo lo que decia el email que recibio Robe. Despues de tanto estudiar, tanto esfuerzo y angustias pasadas, gracias a Dios, quedamos (dijo la mosca) en Minneapolis, ahi Robe entrara a hacer su residencia medica (los que lo conocen ya saben en que, los que no, preeeeguuuntameee). Todavia no sabemos cuando nos vamos, en donde vamos a vivir o que voy a hacer yo, pero la cosa es que estamos muy emocionados! La ciudad al parecer es muy bonita y cultural, esperemos que sea lo suficientemente bonita, cultural y entretenida como para olvidarnos de que hace un frio de la chi... bueno, al menos voy a poder tejer muchas prendas de lana y las voy a poder usar...voy a tener que terminar el par de calcetines de lana que empece. Hojala y puedan ir a visitarnos, los estaremos esperando!

Se ve bien,no?

We matched! Yey!! We're going to Minneapolis. We're sooo excited, but scared at the same time, it will definetley be a new adventure, a great adventure! Hope you have a chance to go visit us, we'll be waiting for you.
