Be sure to wash off the tomatillos after you husk them. There is a sticky film on them that is bitter to some. Wash and scrub gently and it will come off. I grew a tomatillo in my garden last year and froze the abundance. They worked perfectly in this and other recipes.

Using a blender, carefully puree the tomatillos and water in batches until smooth.
