Steps:
- Set an oven rack about 5 inches beneath the heating element and preheat the broiler. Line a rimmed baking sheet with heavy-duty aluminum foil.
- Place the tomatillos, onions, garlic, jalapeño pepper and oil directly on the prepared baking sheet and toss with your hands or a rubber spatula. Broil until softened and slightly charred, 10-12 minutes.
- Transfer the vegetables and juices to a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Add the salt, cumin, sugar, and cilantro and pulse until chunky. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Transfer to a bowl and sprinkle with chopped cilantro if desired. Serve the salsa warm, at room temperature, or slightly chilled.
- Note: This recipe is not meant for canning.
- Make Ahead: The salsa can be made up to 3 days ahead of time and stored in a covered container in the refrigerator.
- Freezer-Friendly Instructions: The salsa can be frozen in an airtight for up to 3 months. Defrost in the refrigerator overnight before serving. (Some of the liquid may separate out when it's defrosted, or it might get a bit watery, but you can correct that by reheating it.)

ROASTED SPICY SALSA VERDE
Roasted-pepper green salsa just like grandma makes it, well, minus the molcajete. It's just easier to make in a food processor. The heat of your salsa can be controlled by the amount of seeds and membrane you leave in the pepper pods.

Steps:
- Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
- Lay the poblano peppers, serrano peppers, and tomatillos on the hot grill, and cook, turning every 2 minutes, until the pepper skins are evenly charred and blackened, and the tomatillos have turned pale yellow and started to ooze juice, about 10 minutes. Remove the vegetables from the grill.
- Scrape off most of the burned pepper skin, cut the stems off, cut the peppers in half the long way, and remove the seeds.
- Place the onion and garlic in the work bowl of a food processor, and pulse about 4 times to chop. Drop in the peppers, pulse 4 times to roughly chop, and add the tomatillos and salt. Pulse 4 or more times to the desired smoothness, and stir in the cilantro.

SALSA VERDE
Danny Mena, the Mexico City native who is a chef at Hecho en Dumbo, described a good salsa as being "poignant" with heat when he spoke with Julia Moskin in 2010. This recipe for his salsa verde employs a good number of chiles - anywhere between eight and 12 - alongside a couple of pounds of tangy tomatillos. Ms. Moskin described it as "a rounded, tomatillo-based trickle of concentrated flavor with Serrano chiles." This cooked sauce is ready quickly, and just as good as a table sauce as it is in a larger main, like chilaquiles.
