The Best Way to Prepare & Cook Tomatillos
Tomatillos are plump green fruits with a delicious tart flavor. Though they’re related to tomatoes, they don’t initially bear a strong resemblance. Tomatillos are covered in brownish-green papery husks, and the fruit underneath can feel a little sticky. They’re popular in Mexican cooking, where they are often used as the base of delicious sauces.
