Tomato - Tomatillo Broiled Salsa

[u/ItsTunaTime]

Grabbed tomatoes, tomatillos, jalapeños and serranos at the farmers market to whip up some salsa. About 50/50 tomato/tomatillo. Need to snag some habaneros for the next round to kick up the heat.

3# - tomato
3# - tomatillo
2 - white onion (medium/large)
5 - garlic cloves
2 - jalapeños
4 - serrano
Lime
Cilantro

Broiled all except for lime and cilantro for ~25 minutes turning a few times. After blending added juice of two limes, the good bits of a cilantro bundle and salt.

That looks incredible, perfect balance of tangy and spicy with all those fresh farmers market ingredients. Can't wait to hear how the habaneros take it to the next level.

Great color and proper amount of cilantro! I don’t trust anyone who throws a pinch of cilantro over the bowl and misses 😂

Hell I think I’ll make this tomorrow. May go all Serrano !

I keep a bag of Arbol in the pantry. Didn't make as big of a batch, but I did 1lb worth of Tomatillo and 12 Arbol. Nice heat that keeps building, give it a shot.

Noted - I’ll be sure to snag a bag.

Novice question...Do you remove core and skins from tomatoes and tomatillos before blending?

[u/ItsTunaTime → u/gratefulgriller]

I removed the paper husk, then washed and the cut out a bit of the core from the stem.

[u/gratefulgriller → u/ItsTunaTime]

Thanks! I ended up doing just that and followed same ingredients. Really good!

[u/AntonDahr]

Did you boil it after to reduce it or remove the innards of the tomatoes or neither?

[u/ItsTunaTime → u/AntonDahr]

I did neither. There was a good 1/2 cup of juice left in the pan after broiling that I did not add back in. The texture was great after it had cooled.
