Yield Makes 3 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound tomatillos, husked and rinsed
3 green apples, such as Granny Smith, quartered
1/2 medium white onion
3 garlic cloves, unpeeled
1 jalapeño chile, stemmed
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • 1 Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • 2 Put the tomatillos, 2 of the apples, the onion, garlic, and jalapeño chile on a rimmed baking sheet. Toss with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast until tomatillos are softened and slightly charred, about 20 minutes.
  • 3 Peel the garlic, then transfer all of the ingredients to a blender and puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
  • 4 Chop the remaining apple into 1/4-inch cubes and stir into the salsa before serving.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful apples and tomatillos. This will ensure that your salsa has the best possible flavor.
  • Roast the apples and tomatillos before making the salsa. This will help to concentrate their flavors and give the salsa a slightly smoky taste.
  • Use a variety of peppers in your salsa. This will give it a more complex flavor. If you like spicy salsa, use more jalapeños or serranos. If you prefer a milder salsa, use more poblanos or bell peppers.
  • Don't overcook the salsa. Overcooked salsa will lose its fresh flavor and become mushy.
  • Serve the salsa immediately or store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Salsa is best when it is fresh, but it will keep for a few weeks in the refrigerator.

Conclusion:

Roasted apple and tomatillo salsa is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used to add flavor to a variety of dishes. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste preferences.
