JALAPENO SALSA
I wanted a verde style salsa, but living in Germany, I was not able to find tomatillos. This green salsa is great on eggs, used as a marinade, or just eaten with tortilla chips. Its heat is somewhere in the middle between mild and hot. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Peel the skin from the tomatoes and add tomatoes to the blender.

ROASTED TOMATILLO AND APPLE SALSA
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the tomatillos, apples, garlic, jalapenos and onion on a baking sheet; toss with the olive oil, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Roast until the tomatillos are softened and slightly charred, about 20 minutes. Peel the garlic. Let the roasted vegetable mixture cool to room temperature.
- Puree the roasted vegetable mixture and cilantro in a blender until smooth. Add 2 to 3 tablespoons water to loosen, if needed. Season with salt and pepper.
Tips:
- Choose the right apples for your salsa. Granny Smith apples are a popular choice because they are tart and crisp. However, you can also use other varieties of apples, such as Honeycrisp, Pink Lady, or Fuji.
- Use fresh, green onions for the best flavor. If you don't have green onions, you can substitute a small onion, finely chopped.
- The amount of jalapeño you add to the salsa is up to you. If you like a mild salsa, use one or two jalapeños. If you like a spicy salsa, use three or four jalapeños.
- Be sure to remove the seeds and ribs from the jalapeños before chopping them. This will help to reduce the heat of the salsa.
- If you don't have cilantro, you can substitute parsley or basil.
- Serve the salsa immediately or store it in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
Conclusion:
Apple, green onion, and jalapeño salsa is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used on tacos, burritos, nachos, or as a dip for chips. It is also a great way to use up leftover apples. With its sweet, spicy, and tangy flavor, this salsa is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
