Salsa Verde or green tomatillo salsa is bright and fruity and is the perfect complement to grilled meats and cheese dishes. Not bad with just tortilla chips either.

½ Teaspoon Freshly Ground Pepper

1 Bunch Stemmed Cilantro

In a medium size saucepan fill with 2 cups of water.  Put the tomatillos, garlic, onions and jalapenos in the saucepan.  Boil for 5 minutes.  You will want the contents to be slightly soft.  Drain, but save 1 cup of the cooking water.  Put the
ingredients into a blender or food processor along with the cooking liquid that
you saved.  Add the salt, pepper, sugar and cilantro.  Pulse until chunky.  Pour into a serving bowl and serve at room temperature.  Makes 4 cups.
