This time I utilized my real oven to broil the tomatillos, garlic, onion and jalapenos. I decided to add 4x jalapenos because i love the smell and taste of them and it felt like the simple recipe would benefit from that extra flavor. I used a small drizzle of avocado oil on the baking sheet before placing the veggies down. I cut off the tops/stems of the jalapenos but did not remove the cores or seeds. I added the Chile de Arbol after removing stems but did not soak them. I broiled the veggies in my real oven this time, at 450F for 15-20 minutes. I still didn’t really get the roasted result I was looking for so maybe next time I try 500F? I also purchased 2x limes with the intent of added fresh lime juice prior to blending it all together, but then I forgot about them in the fridge. So, I’ll try that next time.
The color is less yellow, there’s much more texture, somehow it’s a bit spicier (eye watering), and it’s super tasty again. Very happy with this result! I also bought 2x bag of HEB tortilla chips from the bakery, so hopefully I won’t run out of chips before I finish the salsa.
Overall, another *borat voice* greeeeat successss!
Let me know what you think! Thanks again to everyone in the sub for all the help/guidance advice on the previous post!

Looks awesome! I’ve broiled my last attempt at 450 and also didn’t quite get the char I was looking for. I might try heating everything in my cast iron next time.

It looks great! Try the broiler for the char, I have found that to be the most effective

I see a lot of recipes that use cilantro. I made mine the other day with it. Is that something that you keep out because of personal preference?
