Before I made this, I had only had the bottled stuff. But this is very good! even roasted, it is very ‘fresh’, and lasts days in the fridge. I’ve really enjoyed it, and look forward to trying it with other peppers.
Seranno is the key beside tomatillo.
Pablano is a good call
One time I tried to make for my then husband his favorite Mexican red sauce from scratch. Roasting the dried peppers and all. It was a lot of work but you could taste that work in the delicious finished product. Need to do that again.
