Salsa is probably my favorite condiment. And over the years of making various fermented foods, this fermented salsa verde has become one of my favorites to me.

The flavor is amazing and it’s great to put on just about anything. We go through it quick, so I like to make a lot at one time. You can halve this recipe if you don’t think you’ll go through it quickly.

It’s the best salsa verde for chips and salsa, in my humble opinion. It’s so tasty and nutritious! Learn how to make it in our easy recipe.
