Authentic Salsa Verde (Served Hot) image

The recipe was given to us by a co-worker of our son. I could just sit and eat the sauce it's so good! It makes a very thick sauce, but you can thin it to your liking. it's not as hot as you think it is (considering the base is jalapeno)

I'm not a big fan of salsa verde, but I thought this recipe was pretty good. It's not as tangy or acidic as some other salsa verdes I've had.

This salsa verde is so easy to make, and it's a great way to use up leftover herbs. I'll definitely be making this again.

This salsa verde is a bit spicier than I expected, but I still really liked it. I think it would be great on grilled meats or fish.

I'm not a huge fan of cilantro, but I really enjoyed this salsa verde. The other herbs and spices balance out the cilantro flavor perfectly.

This salsa verde is the perfect way to add a pop of flavor to any dish. I love it on tacos, burritos, and enchiladas.

This salsa verde is a great way to use up leftover herbs. I always have a bunch of parsley and basil in my fridge, and this is a great way to use them up before they go bad.

I was a bit skeptical about making my own salsa verde, but I'm so glad I did. It's so much better than anything you can buy in the store.

This is the best salsa verde I've ever had. It's so easy to make, and it tastes like it came from a fancy restaurant.

I love the versatility of this salsa verde. I've used it as a marinade for chicken, a dipping sauce for vegetables, and even as a salad dressing. It's always delicious.

This salsa verde is a game-changer! The flavors are so bright and fresh, and it's the perfect balance of tangy and creamy. I served it with grilled chicken and roasted vegetables, and it was a hit with the whole family.
