For a smoky depth of flavor, char the tomatillos, onion, and jalapeños under a broiler or on a grill before blending. This intensifies their natural sweetness and adds a complex smoky note. To tame the heat of the jalapeños, remove the seeds and membranes before chopping. For a milder salsa, consider using poblano peppers instead. Fresh lime juice adds a bright and tangy counterpoint to the earthy tomatillos. Add a squeeze at the end for a burst of flavor. Store any leftover salsa in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. The flavors will continue to develop over time.
