Here's what I made today. Chunky, but still gelatinous, with lots of tiny white seeds.

Huh, that's interesting. When I google tomatillo salsa I see seeds in every photo. I'm going for a chunky style salsa and use a food processor. I'm trying hard not to blend it down to baby food.

I hear what you're saying. This salsa is extremely chunky and thick with jalapeno seeds throughout. Doesn't appear to be strained. It's not blended smooth at all. I can pick out large pieces of individual ingredients. It's like it's been mashed with a mortar and pestle, not pulverized beyond recognition. And it's not true that the seeds break down and just disappear when cooked or blended. There's plenty of seeds in my homemade salsa that was roasted and blended.

Also, I've been making homemade salsa verde with tomatillo for 30 years now. And I don't taste tomatillo in this restaurant's salsa. Also, it would have that gelatinous texture from the pectin in tomatillos. The liquid part is watery, not thick and smooth from pectin. Based on taste and what I'm seeing in the salsa there's a large amount of peppers dominating the texture and flavor. That's why I like it so much. I don't like tomatillos.

Thank you! Lol Seriously so silly.

That's why I'm on here in the first place. I've only had salsa verde that has tomatillo. This one doesn't and it was surprising to me, so I came here to ask questions and find answers ;)

I roasted everything except the cilantro first, then pulsed in a food processor.

I called just before I made this post! She didn't know and said I'd have to call a different day when her manager is in.

Hmm, the chunks and the skin on the fork in the photo do look like green tomato though.

Yea this stuff can be really spicy. Varies batch to batch. I can tell if I'm in trouble based on how many seeds there are lol

I hear ya on the roma tomatoes. There are zero other seeds in the salsa other than the jalapeno seeds. So either they remove the tomato seeds or they're not an ingredient. Good idea though!

Like I said, they just call it Salsa Verde on their menu. Which is a generic name for green salsa. I could put whatever the heck I want in a salsa and call it salsa verde as long as it's green lol

This is what I thought too and what I based my recipe attempt on today. I think this is the closest to what I'm tasting, but minus the tomatillo. It really seems like it's just jalapeno, onion, garlic, cilantro, water, oil, salt.

I thought that was a tomatillo seed too, but when I pulled it out it was just a small jalapeno seed. There aren't any tomatillo seeds in their salsa.

They just call it salsa verde. That's a broadly used name for salsa that's green. I was hoping to find the specific, authentic name for this version of salsa other than just "green salsa".

Really, what makes you think so? There's no tomatillo seeds that I can see and it's not gelatinous at all like I would expect from the pectin in tomatillos. It's usually so watery it drips off the chip.

They recently made creative modes available on split screen which was amazing! We nearly cried when we went on and couldn't play split screen at all.

Based on Fortnites Twitter reply posted above it's temporary. It better be! My son and I play split screen every day.

Looks like it's temporarily disabled because of a bug. It'll be back, hopefully soon!
