Tomatillo Salsa, sometimes called salsa verde, is one of our favorite salsas to make during the summertime, along with pineapple, peach, and mango salsa! We love making salsa!

While most salsa verde recipes call for roasting or charring the tomatillos first, this raw recipe is much easier and preserves the tart flavor and bright green color of the tomatillos. The flavor is a little more sour, but so good with salty tortilla chips and all of your favorite Mexican dishes.

The Tomatillo

Tomatillos are the star ingredient! You can find tomatillos at most grocery stores in the produce section. They look like small green tomatoes, but have a husk around the outside.

Picking The Right Tomatillo

Look for tomatillos with a husk that covers most of the fruit. Make sure the husks aren’t torn or damaged. The husk should be relatively tight, and the fruit inside should be firm, but not rock-hard. If the tomatillos are squishy, they are overripe.

How to Peel Tomatillos

Tomatillos can be eaten raw, they are a little tart and have a sharp flavor. When roasted or grilled, their flavor mellows out and the flavor is a little sweeter.

To remove the husks, simply peel them back from the smooth green skin. Make sure you wash the green flesh to get rid of the sticky film left by the husks.

Fresh Tomatillo Salsa

If you prefer a tart salsa, you don’t have to roast the tomatillos. Place the tomatillos, onion, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, and Serrano chiles in the blender and blend! Season with salt and pepper and you have the most amazing fresh salsa!

The color will be super bright green and you will want to grab a bag of tortilla chips and start dipping ASAP!

Roasted Tomatillo Salsa

If you want to make a roasted salsa verde, you can roast the tomatillos before blending.

  • Preheat the broiler.
  • Line a large baking sheet with foil. Cut the tomatillos in half and place cut side down on a baking sheet.
  • Place the tomatillos under the hot broiler for 5 to 7 minutes or until the skins are lightly blackened.
  • Let cool to room temperature before blending.

I have an older Roasted Tomatillo Salsa Recipe that you can check out too.

Serving Suggestions

Serve the tomatillo salsa with tortilla chips, tacos, burritos, quesadillas, taquitos, enchiladas, tostadas, use it as a dressing for taco salads or burrito bowls…the options are endless!

This easy Tomatillo Salsa is going to be a staple in your home! You can blend it up in no time and it’s SO good! Enjoy!

How to Store

Keep the salsa in a jar or container, covered, in the refrigerator for up to one week. Ours usually doesn’t last that long because we like to put it on all of the things!

    Wow I never knew making my own salsa Verde could be so easy and painless, thank you! I will be making my own going forward.

  162. I am obsessed with your blog and the This and That emails every Thursday. I read them every week! I feel like we are friends. Thanks for the great job you do on this site. Lovely work. I can’t wait to make this salsa.

  163. I would LOVE a copy of this book. Even if I don’t win I will try and find it online. Side note, your recipes are spot on and foolproof. Thank you so much. I have used your recipes many times but my fav is the chickpea guacamole. I spread it on toast and use it for tacos. 

  164. This looks great and so simple!  Once I get my hands on some tomatillos, I will be trying this!

  165. This looks yummy! Can’t wait to make it and add it to my list of favorite recipes that I have gotten from you!

  166. Dear Two Peas, I have followed you from the beginning. You always have fresh and inviting recipes and posts. Very sweet family. Thank you.

  167. I’ve been making tomatillo salsa for the last month with the veggies from my CSA and this blender would be SUCH an huge help! 

  168. Love salsa! It is definitely a staple in our house. This easy recipe will be great to try with tacos.

  169. I’ve only recently realized that I like tomatillos, so I’m excited to try this. What a wonderful giveaway!

  172. Your recipes are no-fail. I cannot wait to try this. And a Vitamix? I’ve had my eye on one for nearly a decade.

  173. I love making homemade salsa and I’ve never tried tomatillo, looks so fresh and vibrant! Being in a cooking rut lately, the cookbook and vitamix would be an amazing to have in my kitchen!

  174. Usually I roast my tomatillos, but I think I’ll have to try this! Have you ever had guac-atillo salsa? 

  175. I was just looking at blenders at Target because mine died, so I could use a new one–a Vitamix!!!!! And my daughter needs the cookbook (but only after I read it and try out a few recipes first!)

  176. This looks so good. I have never made salsa but I would love to try. Thank you for the opportunity to win!

  177. Love tomatillo salsa – really any green Mexican sauce! I am redoing my kitchen and can’t wait to get back to cooking. I am actually planning a big Mexican feast to thank all the friends who helped us with the construction. This will be a perfect addition. Thanks for the recipe!!

  178. I would love to try this recipe! It sounds delish and a lot different from regular salsa. Thank you for the giveaway!

  179. I love  your site! You have the most delicious recipes – even things I don’t particularly like look amazing! I would love to win the Vitamix/ cookbook! I would definitely make the Tomatillo Salsa with it!

  180. Yummy! Just got done making your chocholate chip zucchini bread.. love your recipes! Would love a Vitamix!!

  181. I’m not a fan of cilantro…I know, I know…would you still try this recipe if I didn’t add it? And maybe parlsey instead?

    **T H A N K S ** for the giveaways! Good Luck to ME!!!

    1. The cilantro is a big part of the recipe, I honestly think it needs it. If you really hate it, you can try parsley, but it will give it a completely different taste. I have only tried it with cilantro.

  182. I have never worked with tomatillos, so I am excited to try this salsa! Looks so fresh and tasty! Thanks, Maria!

  183. I’m SO glad you posted this! My husband grew tomatillos for the first time this year and I’ve been trying to find different recipes to use. I will definitely give this one a shot. Thank you!

  184. This recipe sounds amazing! I’ve always preferred Salsa Verde over the red variety! This Tomatillo Salsa looks so easy to prepare…you don’t even have to roast the Tomatillo’s 🙂 I’ll be making this as soon as I possibly can!! Thanks for sharing!

  185. OMG….the VITAMIX and cookbook look AMAZING. PLEASE sign me up for the contest!  WOULD LOVE TO TRY THIS RECIPE, I bet the Vitamix would be a helpful tool for canning.

  186. Perfect timing! I’m going to a Mexican themed fiesta on Sunday and now I know what I’ll be bringing. Thanks for all your great recipes and the chance at the blender and cookbook!

  187. I Love your bright vibrant recipes you make. So fresh and appealing. Thank you Two Peas and their pod

  188. I can’t wait to try this recipe!! I love Tomatillo salsa and practically put it on anything. Thanks for sharing!

  189. I love all the plant based recipes you’ve been posting lately. Recently had to give up meat, dairy and sugar for health reasons. Can’t wait to try out this salsa! Thanks for the chance to win!

  190. I have had my eye on a Vitamix for years! My fav foods are Tex-mex so I am sure I’d love that healthy green salsa!

  191. 5 stars
    This is my favorite salsa! Looks a lot more uniform using your vitamix compared to my blender!! I could literally drink this stuff! (It’d have a lot less carbs that way than the bag of tortilla chips I normally eat this with!) 🙂

  192. Looks so fresh and tasty! I used to live in Texas and am now in the PNW. Hard to get authentic and good Mexican food around here. My husband and I make it ourselves, even fresh flour tortillas! This will be a perfect addition to our repertoire! Thanks, Maria…we have made many of your recipes and they are always fantastic!

  193. This salsa would be sooo tasty on top of nachos with lots of avocado! Love the bright green color. 🙂
