NOTES : The unusual lemony flavor of tomatillos and the cilantro give this
favorite Mexican dip a new slant. Tomatillos resemble little green
tomatoes. They're turning up more and more in specialty produce stores and
well-stocked supermarkets. They are also sold canned if you can't find them
fresh.
