An easy salsa recipe just requires a few choice ingredients. A tomato salsa recipe can be made from the meaty Roma Tomato and a green salsa recipe is typically made from Tomatillos.
A tomatillo salsa recipe can be a refreshing change from the standard salsa most of us are use to eating. This green salsa recipe has more of a tangy taste than the standard salsa.
If you want a more rich tasting tomato salsa recipe use a Roma tomato instead of the more watery round tomato which is great if you want a more liquid type of salsa.
Green Salsa Recipe
This is not the usual green salsa recipe, but I love the use of these fresh ingredients - especially the cucumber. It looks like a very refreshing and hydrating salsa compared to most others.
However, I would make or buy a raw vegetable chip to go with my salsa. I have found good tasting raw chips online and in a more progressive health food store.
Brad's Raw Chips are a great tasting and crunchy raw chip available in many flavors and online. I have even made my own and its actually pretty easy to make your own dehydrated
Vegetable Chips.
Tomatillo Salsa Recipe
A tomatillo salsa recipe is a typical green salsa recipe and uses the tomatillo fruit instead of tomatoes.
This fruit is also a member of the nightshade family and is related to tomatoes as well the Cape Gooseberry.
Tomatillos are usually used in their green or unripe state which gives a green salsa recipe a tart citrus flavor.
When a tomatillo ripens it can be yellow to purple in color and will have a sweeter taste.
Look for tomatillos that are surrounded by a light brown and fresh looking husk which indicates freshness.
And if you would like a creamier green salsa, just add in more avocados.

The Roma Tomato
A Roma tomato is a plum tomato that has an oblong egg shape and is available in yellow or a red color.
This tomato has a meaty texture and has only a few seeds which will contribute to making a better tasting salsa.
This variety of tomato is usually found in most grocery stores these days and you could even use a variety of tomatoes to increase the depth of flavor of your tomato salsa recipe.
