Green Salsa

Use this salsa as you would the more familiar red
varieties. Tomatillos (Mexican-style green tomatoes) are available at most large supermarkets.
Makes about 2 cups
8 Tomatillos, husks removed
3 Shallots, peeled
2 cloves Garlic, peeled
1 can Mild green chilies
1/4 cup Cilantro, chopped
1 Jalapeno, seeded (optional)
Salt to taste

Place all the ingredients in a food processor bowl. Pulse until a course salsa forms. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate.
