This is like the ninth time I’ve made the Serious Eats chile verde and I swear every time I make it the more it comes out weirdly, almost inedibly sweet. What the gently caress is going on here? Is that just how tomatillos are? In fact thinking about it a bit more it’s like both too sweet and too sour. What the poo poo. Pollyanna fucked around with this message at 23:46 on Apr 14, 2021 |

tomatillos can be pretty sweet sometimes, just like other nightshades. not saying that's what's happening here but it also wouldn't surprise me.

Are you adding anything else sweet? Tomatillos are super tart in my experience

yeah, I've never wound up with a sweet salsa verde. i blister all my tomotillos, peppers, onions, etc over charcoal and that helps add some smokiness before blitzing in a blender with cilantro and garlic and citrus. i make big batches and freeze em

Do you peel the ginger before charring it?
