INGREDIENTS
| 6 | To 12 fresh jalapenos, stems removed | |
| 12 | Tomatillos, husks removed | |
| 1/2 | White onion, chopped | |
| 2 | Cloves garlic, chopped | |
| 1/3 | c | White wine vinegar |
| 2/3 | c | Water |
| 2 | tb | Sugar |
| 1 1/2 | ts | Salt |
| 1 | bn | Cilantro, chopped |
| (about 1 cup) |
INSTRUCTIONS
Combine all the ingredients except cilantro in a pot and bring to a boil. Cover, lover the heat, and simmer for about 10 minutes or until the tomatillos are soft. Remove from the heat and allow to cool. Transfer the cooled ingredients and the liquid to a blender. Add the cilantro, and puree until smooth and uniformly green. Refrigerate. Makes about two cups. Serve cold or at room temperature. It's wonderful served with grilled meats....a pork chop, for example. It's also very nice mixed with some yogurt to toss with hot pasta for a low-fat quick dinner. And stir some into some soup; it will perk up almost anything without being overwhelming. From Gemini's MASSIVE MealMaster collection at www.synapse.com/~gemini
A Message from our Provider:
“A cheerful spirit is one of the most valuable gifts ever bestowed upon humanity by a kind Creator. It is the sweetest and most fragrant flower of the Spirit, that constantly sends out its beauty and fragrance, and blesses everything within its reach. It will sustain the soul in the darkest and most dreary places of this world. It will hold in check the demons of despair, and stifle the power of discouragement and hopelessness. It is the brightest star that ever cast its radiance over the darkened soul, and one that seldom sets in the gloom of morbid fancies and forboding imaginations.”
