Tomatillo Sauce (cooked)

Of late, I have heard things that I never dreamed of before, alleged even by professedly Christian ministers against the fundamental doctrines of God’s Word; and some have even dared to say that the substitution of Christ, His suffering in our stead, was not just. Then they have added that God forgives sin without any atonement whatever; but, if the first be not just, what shall I say of the second? If God continually forgives sin without taking any care of His moral government, if there be nothing done for the vindication of His justice, how shall the Judge of all the earth do right? Then the very foundations of the universe would be removed, and what would the righteous do? Depend upon this, whatever modern philosophy may say, “Without shedding of blood there is no remission of sin,” that is to say, without an atonement and an atonement consisting of the giving up of a life of infinite value, there is no passing by of human transgression.

		chopped

INSTRUCTIONS

Remove outer husk from tomatillos. Cook in 4 cups water for 10
minutes. Drain. Place in blender container with 1 cup cold water,
garlic, peppers, onion, and cilantro. Puree until almost liquid. Heat
oil in saucepan and pour in sauce. Season with salt and sugar. Lower
heat and simmer 5 minutes. If too sour, add another tsp. sugar.
Variation: for a sauce with a "toasted" taste, heat the tomatillos on
a heavy skillet or griddle, turning frequently, until the husks are
quite brown and the fruit is soft. Remove the husk and use the
tomatillos. Do not puree the sauce for a chunkier, salsa-type sauce.
Excellent with poultry, pork, or beef, burritos, tacos, chicken
enchiladas and tostadas.  Posted to CHILE-HEADS DIGEST by Judy Howle
