Instructions
- 1
Prepare the tomatillos: Remove the husks and rinse the tomatillos under cold water to remove any stickiness.

Chop the tomatillos, jalapeños (remove seeds for less heat), and garlic. Place them in a blender or food processor.
- 3
Add the cilantro leaves (reserve some for garnish), juice of 2 limes, and sea salt to the blender.
- 4
Blend the mixture until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste, adding more lime juice or salt if necessary.

Transfer the salsa verde to a clean glass jar, leaving about an inch of space at the top. Pour in filtered water to cover the mixture if needed.

Cover the jar with a breathable cloth or a fermentation lid and let it sit at room temperature (around 70°F to 75°F) for 3 to 5 days. Check daily for bubbles and taste for tanginess.

Once fermented to your liking, seal the jar with a regular lid and refrigerate the salsa verde.

To serve, heat the corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until warm.
