Spicyness:
Tomatillos or green tomatoes are very popular throughout Mexico, being used as a base for many traditional dishes. The distant cousin of the red tomato is used to prepare some of the most typical salsas. For green salsa and sometimes for guacamole, you ll apply tomatillos. You'll also find them in or over enchiladas or chilaquiles. Basically, most green versions of traditional Mexican red dishes are made with tomatillos. The flavor is tangy, refreshing and spicy, a must in any pantry!
