Anne Ginn makes green salsa Apr. 27 at home in Ocoyoacac, Mexico.

Since Anne has moved to Mexico, she's learned to cook Mexican food. Like green salsa, which she makes on a regular basis: tomatillos (or tomates, as they are known in Mexico), a couple green jalapeños, onions, garlic, and a bit of water. Probably a bit of salt, too, but I don't remember that part. Blender it all up. I think that's it.

Great with rice, pork, tortillas, and lots of other things.
