Salsa de Aguacate — Creamy Avocado Salsa

Salsa de Aguacate

Creamy Avocado Salsa

Raw tomatillos, serrano, and cilantro are blended into a bright green base before ripe avocado is folded in just until creamy, keeping this salsa spoonable rather than pasty.

Before you cook

How long will this salsa keep?

Serve it right away for the brightest green color, or press plastic wrap directly against the surface and refrigerate for up to one day — the direct contact keeps air from browning the avocado.
