Tomatillos


I had never heard of Tomatillos until I bought a new book by Jamie Purviance to go with my Weber Q grill (you really should get a cookbook with these grills WEBER..). Until the book came along, the grill had not been used to its full potential. Mr Purviance is a genius!

Anyway, I was intrigued by his tomatillo salsa, acquired some seeds from the US and grew them. This week we had enough to make the salsa. They are funny little things, and start off with a little coat like a cape gooseberry.

After all that, I guess they must be an aquired taste - too bitter for both us. So sorry Mr tomatillo...
