Original Green Salsa

Original Green Salsa blends simmered tomatillos and green tomatoes with cilantro, mild chiles, and a touch of vinegar for a bright, tangy bite. The flavors mellow into a smooth, chip-ready sauce with gentle heat and herbaceous notes, perfect for topping tacos, spooning over grilled meats, or serving with tortilla chips at gatherings.
