This salsa is even better when made ahead (up to 1 week). Refrigerate it until ready to serve, at room temperature.

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pound tomatillos, husks removed, rinsed and dried
6 cloves garlic
8 dried chiles de arbol, stems removed
4 dried pasilla or New Mexico chiles, stems removed
1 teaspoon coarse salt

Steps:

  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add tomatillos; cook, turning a few times, until blistered in spots and beginning to soften, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let steam 15 minutes.

Add chiles to skillet and cook, turning frequently, just until toasted and soft, 30 to 60 seconds. Transfer to blender with tomatillos and accumulated juices, salt, and 2 tablespoons water. Blend to consistency of a thin salsa, about 10 seconds.
