Tomatillo Green Salsa
5 cups chopped tomatillos
1½ cups seeded, chopped long green chiles
½ cup seeded, finely chopped jalapeño peppers
4 cups chopped onions
1 cup bottled lemon or lime juice
6 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tablespoon ground cumin*
3 tablespoons oregano leaves*
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
Combine all ingredients in a large saucepan and stir
frequently over high heat until mixture begins to boil,
then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring
occasionally. Ladle hot into pint jars, leaving ½ inch
head space. Adjust lids and process in a boiling water
canner: 15 minutes at 0–1,000 feet altitude; 20 minutes at
1,001–6,000 feet; or 25 minutes above 6,000 feet.
Yield: 5 pints
I do not add cumin or cilantro. I add cilantro when we eat it so it is fresh. I do not care for cumin in my salsa.
I love to pour over a pork roast that is rubbed in garlic, line juice and Cajun seasoning. I then slow roast it for several hours about 250 degrees.
Then I shred pork and eat in tortilla shells with cilantro and fresh cilantro. You can add sour cream.
I also like to make Chicken Enchilada Verde with this salsa.
