I learnt that tomatillos, used to make salsa verde, are not actually tomatoes but are Physalis philadelphica and Physalis ixocarpa. Though they are in the same family as tomatoes. I ordered some seeds to grow next spring. ‘tomatillas thrive on neglect’. Excellent.Grandson is getting into cooking and his current obsession is Mexican. I’m loving it. We found a shop in Melbourne that sells tortilla presses and black corn.
Though I am hoping he will head back to the Korean food once this Mexmania has passed
Tomatillos.
