What did you think of it any good ? It looks like you didn’t roast the onions. Any reason?

Hi! A follow-up to [my earlier post](https://www.reddit.com/r/SalsaSnobs/comments/1gyj3er/first_attempt_at_salsa_verde/) incorporating many of your suggestions. I used less garlic. I used less onion and didn’t broil it, saving half to mix in at the end for texture. I added some MSG (not pictured) as a way to enhance the umami flavor. I also didn’t add any oil before broiling.
**To Blend:** 1/4 white onion, half a bunch cilantro, juice of 1 1/2 limes, salt and black pepper to taste, 1/2-1 tsp MSG
**To Finish:** 1/4 finely diced white onion thoroughly mixed in
Very flavorful, though not as spicy as I’d like it to be. Be warned that a little MSG goes a long way, so stir in slowly and taste along the way. I may have added a little too much for my palate.
