As part of Simply Tasty's Mexican theme week, the spotlight is on salsa verde. Salsa verde captures the essence of Mexican cuisine with its vibrant green color and complex flavor.

Made from tomatillos - small, green fruits that add a tart note and are more closely related to the physalis than to the traditional tomato - it offers a perfect balance of acidity and spiciness. The green salsa goes well with a wide range of Mexican dishes, such as tacos or sopes, thick little corn tortillas.
