i love tomatillo salsa. it's my absolute fave. however, i have yet to make it as i can never tell when the tomatillos are ripe. any suggestions?
ReplyDeleteHey Mercie... they're ready when they fill their pretty paper wrappers, or even when they start to just bust through them. They'll be firm and green -- nothing like ripe tomatoes!
