Salsa Verde from Tahiri Flores

Salsa Verde

Tahiri Flowers
Salsa verde has deep smoky flavor from the roasted veg and heat from serrano chiles, balanced by the bright zesty tomatillos. This traditional salsa pairs up well with chips, tacos, and can be used as a base for so many other dishes. You won't believe how easy it is to make!
