Hi Sarah – we’re growing tomatillos organically for the first time and would like to can a tomato/tomatillo salsa, one that combines both as we’re getting plenty. We also have jalapenos and other hot peppers growing. Any canning recipe for combining these that would produce a thicker salsa for those winter days when you want the taste of summer?

I’m growing them this year too! They are literally taking over the garden. A farmer told me they would grow like weeds and she was right.

I love to make sals and enchilada suisas. since tyou asked, here’s a quick recipe I made last year with some extra tomatillos: Grilled Shrimp with “Green” Quinoa: http://www.localfoodrocks.com/2009/09/kitchen-experiment-tasty-dinner.html

To us in the Heartland, salsa has to be red, so I like your tomatoes in this recipe! thanks!

Love tomatillo salsa. I like that you added red tomatoes. I haven’t added them to my recipe. Love it!

Thanks for the catch, Carol! I used one (and the recipe has been updated) jalapeno to make it a mild salsa … you could use more to make it hotter or just use one hotter pepper.

Looks delicious! One thing, though – there doesn’t seem to be any mention of jalepeno in the recipe… how many did you use?

Thanks!
