Ingredients:


1 tablespoon lime juice -- fresh

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 cloves garlic -- sliced

2 cups boiling water

3 medium dried chipolte or morita chiles

10 medium tomatillos -- husks removed
 

Preparation / Directions:


INSTRUCTIONS: Char the tomatillos over a gas burner just until slightly blackened. Do not soften. I use a little grill, called the Asador, that fits over a burner. Set tomatillos aside. Soften chiles in boiling water for 20 minutes. (Or, cover the dried chiles with water, cover with plastic wrap, and microwave at high for 3 minutes.) Drain the chiles and remove the seeds from the softened chiles. Place the tomatillos, chipotles, garlic, salt and lime juice in a food processor or blender, and puree into a smooth sauce. Yields about 1 1/4 cups salsa.
