Give Salsa Verde A Brighter Flavor With One Fresh Ingredient

Salsa verde can get a bright boost via tomatillos, a Spanish fruit frequently described as tart, slightly sweet, and vegetal, with earthy notes.
When fresh, good-quality tomatillos are added to your salsa verde recipe, they bring a vibrant color and burst of fresh flavor that you can't recreate with green tomatoes.
For extra depths of flavor, consider charring the tomatillos before blending with the other ingredients to impart mouthwatering, smoky sophistication to the salsa.
