INGREDIENTS:
1 1/2 cups tomatillos (about 1/2 pound)
2 small or 1 large avocado, peeled and pitted
1/2 jalapeno chile
1 clove garlic
1/4 bunch cilantro, stemmed
About 1 teaspoon kosher salt

---

PREPARATION:

1. To prepare the salsa, soak the tomatillos in cold water for a few minutes,
   then peel off and discard the husks.
2. Place the tomatillos in a blender with the avocadoes, jalapeño, garlic,
   cilantro and salt.
3. Blend on high speed untill smooth and vibrant in color; it should be thicker
   than gravy but thinner than guacamole.
4. Adjust the seasoning with salt as necessary.
