    I like that you're honest with your taste tests. Most guys try it on the first shot and act like it's perfect. You taste it and say "it needs more salt" or "it's not hot enough".

    If you want the salsa verde to be a little bit more mild, cut back on the peppers and add a few tomatillos. Still absolutely delicious and plenty of heat

      @@alexlopez2995 I add 4-5 corn tortillas soaked in water and blended smooth too. That's the flavor I could never figure out on my friends mom's salsa verde. When she tasted it she laughed and said I discovered her secret. Give that a try too, I think you'll like it.

    i make my salsa verde with tomatillos (about 5) serranos (about 8-12) and garlic (1 clove per tomatillo)
    i broil everything for about 15 minutes, let it cool, blend, add 2-3 tablespoons of water and salt to taste
    boom it's done! this is my favorite (roasted) salsa verde recipe :)

    I love finding new recipes for salsa to learn from. I got famous with friends and family with my salsa and I actually put 1 or 2 Carolina reapers because it has an outstanding flavor.
    Granted, it can get extremely spicy but people I know who hate that much heat will suffer because the salsa tastes so good.
    But I've been searching for interesting ways to do a Verde and I think I found a good base! This looks awesome.

    My fav mexican market makes a roasted salsa verde that is phenomenal. However a 16 oz size is $5. I tried hacking the recipe and it wasnt even close. The cashier told me the secret was a lot of garlic. After watching your video, I think I figured out they dont use tomatillos at all! I believe they roast poblanos and then blend the jalapenos, garlic and serrano. Thanks Ernie!! I believe you helped me hack their recipe. Yours looks delicious too!!

    Brother Arnie! Man, am I ever glad I found you on UA-cam! There’s this Mexican restaurant here in NW Arkansas that makes the best salsa verde I’ve ever had. I asked for the recipe and they said it was tomatillos, jalapeño, garlic, cilantro and onion. No matter how I made it, I could never get the taste of theirs. I pretty much gave up until I found your recipe - ALL jalapeño and garlic. I made your recipe and BOOM, that’s the taste I was looking for! The particular flavor I was looking for was the jalapeños! I’ve made it now several times and have shared with friends and they tell me I should make it and sell it!!! I make it every week now and eat most of it, and share some of it. I’m an ole south Texas boy myself. I was born in Aransas Pass. Lives in Corpus also. My dad moved us to Arkansas when I was in High school. Anyway, I watch you all the time now.
