“Broiling the tomatillos gives this salsa a subtly smoky taste. If you are sensitive to spicy food, remove the seeds from the peppers. This salsa is perfect as both a dip for taco chips and to top enchiladas suizas.” - by eileen

1/2 cup cilantro leaves
1/4 cup chopped white onion
1 jalapeno pepper, diced
1 serrano pepper, diced

1/8 teaspoon white sugar
