Salsa verde

Today's recipes:

• The problem with Romance languages: salsa verde means very different things in Mexican and Italian cooking.
• Last week, I made some Mexican salsa verde: cover bottom of pot with water, add tomatillos and simmer until dark green.
• Puree with onion and garlic cloves. (Add roasted green chile, too, for more flavor! I used 2 Anaheims; New Mexico chiles weren't available.)
• Simmer again, about 30 minutes. Great for dipping, enchiladas, or simmering chicken in.
• For an easy entree, put 4 frozen burritos in a slow cooker, top with boneless skinless chicken breasts & salsa verde. Cook 4-6 hours.
