There are just too many red sauces out there. I equate the abundance of red sauce in the world to the amount of green in nature. The most intriguing plants in nature are the ones with exotic colors like bright blue, orange or purple. In similar fashion, chile verde sticks out with it’s light green, almost vomit-colored sauce. But don’t let that dissuade you. This gem of a sauce is made from tomatillos (mild green tomatoes) and jalapenos, and is full of wonderful flavors. If you don’t lick the pot clean when you make the chile verde, this is a great way to use the leftovers. As I always say: sauce is the sauce of life, and this is one sauce worth living for.
