    Despite its appearance, a tomatillo is not a type of green tomato, although both are members of the nightshade family. The tomatillo is covered with a parchmentlike calyx that, when removed, reveals a fruit that looks like a firm green or purplish cherry tomato. The fruits, which have a unique texture and tart flavor, are the basis for many cooked sauces, pipianes and moles, and are occasionally used raw in salsas. Carefully rinse off the sticky residue that covers the skin before using.

    This pairs well with crisp, medium-bodied white wines like the Dancing Coyote Grüner Veltliner, Clarksburg from our Wine Club.

    Directions:

    Put the tomatillos in a small saucepan and add water to barely cover them. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until the tomatillos begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the chiles and garlic and continue cooking until the tomatillos are soft, about 5 minutes more. Remove from the heat.

    Using a slotted spoon, transfer the tomatillos, chiles and garlic to a blender; reserve the cooking liquid. Add the chopped onion and 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid to the blender and process until well blended, leaving some texture.

    In a large fry pan or cazuela over medium-high heat, warm the oil until it is shimmering but not smoking. Pour in the tomatillo mixture all at once and stir vigorously. Stir in an additional 1/2 cup of the reserved cooking liquid along with the 1/2 tsp. sea salt. Reduce the heat to low and cook, uncovered, until the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes. Add more liquid if necessary.

    Just before serving, carefully stir the tortilla chips and cilantro into the sauce and continue cooking until softened but not mushy, about 5 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasonings with sea salt.

    Scoop the mixture into a warmed serving dish or onto warmed individual plates. To garnish, spoon on the crema and scatter the onion rings and cheese on top. Serves 4.

    Make-Ahead Tip: The sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance. Let cool, cover and refrigerate, then reheat over medium-low heat, thinning with water if necessary.

    Serving Tip: This recipe makes a wonderful breakfast dish for company or can be served as a light supper.
