AVOCADO-TOMATILLO TACO TRUCK SAUCE



Avocado-Tomatillo Taco Truck Sauce image

Ms. Gutierrez writes: "This is perhaps the most popular avocado sauce used by taco truck vendors in Mexico. A little sour and very creamy, it's used to top everything from totopos (fried tortilla chips) to tacos and chilaquiles. The acidity of the tomatillos keeps the avocado fresh and vibrantly green for up to three days, if refrigerated." Adapted from "Latin American Street Food: The Best Flavors of Markets, Beaches, and Roadside Stands from Mexico to Argentina" by Sandra A. Gutierrez.
