Tomatillos - These little fruits (just like tomatoes and cucumbers) are native to Mexico. Tomatillos, sometimes called husk tomatoes, look like green, unripe tomatoes with a dry, leafy husk that wraps around the outside. Tomatillos have a slightly more acidic, slightly less sweet flavor than ripe and unripe tomatoes. The most common use for these gems is to make salsa verde. Not only is it totally irresistible, but it’s also super versatile; it’s the perfect spread to take sandwiches to the next level and a must for enchiladas.
