Ingredients

  • 8 lbs tomatillos

  • 4 medium white onions

  • 3 large jalapeƱos

  • 2 serrano peppers

  • 12 cloves garlic

  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro (coarsely chopped)

  • 1/2 cup lime juice

  • 2 teaspoons salt

  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

  • Remove husk from tomatillos and rinse them. Peel and cut onions into eighths. Peel garlic cloves.
  • Arrange all vegetables onto foil-lined baking sheets, and roast at 425 degrees F in the oven. After 15 minutes, remove the garlic, and continue roasting the other vegetables until they begin to develop a light char.
  • Transfer all roasted vegetables and garlic to food processor and puree. Pour puree into stock pot, and add remaining ingredients (cilantro, lime juice, salt, pepper). Simmer for 10-20 minutes, or until desired consistency is reached.
  • Sterilize jars and lids. Fill jars with salsa, de-bubble, and wipe jar rims. Put lids and rings on jar, and place into hot water bath canner. Fill canner with enough water to cover the jars completely.
  • Heat water to boiling. At this point, process 20 minutes.
  • After processing, remove jars from canner and place on counter. Leave undisturbed until completely cooled. Refrigerate jars after opening.
