USED FOR MEXICAN TACOS SAUCE
I purchase green tomatillos for my wife twice a month. She hails from Mexico, and while living here in the UK, she enjoys creating a taste of home by preparing authentic Mexican tacos. The tomatillos play a crucial role in enhancing the flavor of the taco sauce, truly making a significant difference in the overall taste of the tacos. Their inclusion is highly recommended for anyone seeking to replicate the genuine Mexican taco experience.

Essential for salsa verde and other recipes
Drain them well and they are ready to use. Set aside for blending later.Roast 1-2 jalapenos (adjust spiciness), half medium onion cut in wedges, 1-2 cloves of garlic (can be roasted with skin on then peeled) and a green bell pepper. I roast everything together until nicely charred, but check regularly and remove the ingredients that look done.Put all roasted ingredients with tomatillos in a blender, blend on low/medium speed, add some salt to taste and a splash of lime if you wish. Chop and mix in loads of fresh coriander before serving. Can be kept in fridge for a few days (without the coriander).Here you have a brilliant salsa verde to go with any meat, tacos, and variety of dishes!

Good product
As Mexican and living in London, it has been hard for me to find "tomatillos", cause, where I can buy them are really far stores from where I live.I already order this product 3 times, and for this last one, I ordered it last night at 11 pm and it arrived home today at 8 am, I am super surprised about it and happy to be able to prepare my "chilaquiles" for breakfast.The price is high compared to Mexico of course, but compared to other products from here, like salsas already made, the price is lower cause I can prepare two times salsas with this can.

Too salty for my taste
This is the first time I ordered this brand of tomatillo. The fruit itself looks nice in the can, round and full, bursting of juices but when I tasted it I could barely feel anything other than the salt and I didn't add any extra salt to my salsa. I usually find pre-cooked meals that you can get from the shops in the UK saltless and always add more but this one is an overkill for me. I will definitely go back to the other brand next time.

The best tomatillos are Costena!
Costena is the best brand of mexican products like tomatillos and jalapenos. Made in Mexico (not eu or asia etc which never taste authentic mexican). Highly recommeded. Tomatillos make the best green sauce!
