Just made a batch of this and it is fantastic. Love it. queera@gmail.com a tomatillo is in the produce section it looks like a green tomato but has a papery outside that you just peel away before using. Tast nothing like a tomato though. Has a unique fresh taste.

Another new recipe for my list of old stand-bys. Freshly made taste so much better. Plus it's more nutritious, and you get so more. More bang for you buck, for sure.

My contribution about tomatillos: They're in the nightshade family, making them closer to eggplants than tomatoes. More useful, they will last about 2 weeks in the fridge, and longer if you remove the papery husks and put them in a sealed bag.

I plan to add variety by including fruits like pineapple, peaches, and especially mangoes. Fresh mango salsa! Can't wait.

5 stars. Many thanks, Brigid.
