Salsa Taquera
Salsa Taquera is a traditional Mexican salsa that serves as the soul of many authentic Mexican dishes. Its fiery heat from the serrano chiles, the tangy punch from the tomatillos, and the refreshing hint of cilantro create a symphony of flavors. This salsa is not just a condiment, it is a trip to the heart of Mexico with every spoonful.
Servings: 8
Ingredients
- Salt

- White onion
- 1 medium, chopped
- Garlic

Instructions
- Place the tomatillos and serrano chiles in a large pot and add enough water to cover them.

- Add the peeled garlic, chopped onion, freshly chopped cilantro, and salt to the blender.
- Blend the mixture until it reaches a smooth consistency. Ensure all ingredients are well-blended to infuse flavors.
