Authentic Salsa Verde (Served Hot) image

The recipe was given to us by a co-worker of our son. I could just sit and eat the sauce it's so good! It makes a very thick sauce, but you can thin it to your liking. it's not as hot as you think it is (considering the base is jalapeno)

This salsa verde is the perfect balance of flavors. It's not too spicy, not too tangy, and not too salty. It's just right.

I love that this salsa verde is made with roasted tomatillos. It gives it a really unique and smoky flavor.

This salsa verde is a great way to use up leftover herbs. I always have a bunch of basil and parsley in my fridge, so this is a perfect recipe for me.

The salsa verde was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I fixed that by adding a little bit of sour cream. Overall, it was a great recipe and I'll definitely make it again.
