My Salsa Verde

My friend Angela has her own salsa verde recipe.  I came up with mine by combining her recipe and one I found on the internet.

About a lb of tomatillos (husks removed and tomatillos washed)
1 bunch of cilantro, ends chopped off
1/2 yellow onion
4 T lime juice
1 t white sugar
serrano or jalapeno pepper (I put in one or two, you might like less)

I put everything in the blender, a little at a time and blend it.  This would work with a food processor even better, I assume.  My food processor is one I got from my inlaws' house when we emptied it and it is really tiny.  As for the peppers, I buy a large quantity and freeze them.  Last summer, I was fortunate enough to be given a big bag of jalapeno peppers from the Zookeeper's farm share.  They had amazing flavor and were HOT-HOT-HOT!  I love this salsa verde so much that I could just sit there and eat it with a spoon.
