Salsa Verde

Mexican-inspired salsa verde

Inspired by traditional Mexican recipes, this green salsa combines the tanginess of tomatillos, the freshness of lime and cilantro, and the mild heat of jalapeño and poblano peppers. A classic recipe carefully reimagined in Montreal, it is tangy, herbaceous, and vibrant. Serve it on tacos, huevos rancheros, grilled fish, or nachos.

Mexican-inspired salsa verde

A tribute to the roots of salsa verde, a pillar of Mexican cuisine. In the markets of Oaxaca and Puebla, it's still prepared on a stone, with tangy tomatillos, fresh jalapeños, and garden herbs.

At La Pimenterie, we wanted to keep this spirit alive by adding our Montreal expertise. We work with raw ingredients, from tomatillos to peppers, to create a salsa that's as fresh as it is homemade. Epazote adds a unique vegetal touch, while lime and cilantro awaken the taste buds.

poblano

Poblano

Poblano is the chameleon of chilies. Fresh, it's mild, earthy, and slightly sweet. Once dried, it changes names: Ancho if harvested earlier, Mulato if ripened further. Not very hot but rich in character, it adds roundness, depth, and an essential aromatic base to many of our sauces.

Ingredients

Tomatillos

The tomato's little green cousin. It's used for its tangy, crunchy, and lemony flavor, which pairs perfectly with chili peppers. It adds freshness and complexity.

Coriander Seed

These small, floral, slightly lemony seeds add a subtle warmth. They are used for their ability to balance flavors and add depth and unique character to sauces.

Green pepper

Unripened bell peppers. They are used for their more bitter, pronounced flavor, which pairs wonderfully with chili peppers. They add depth and complexity.
