Guest guest Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 -Sissy, This looks so yummy. If it wasn't so darn hot out I would go to the store right now for those tomatillos. Where do I find the Chipoltle chilies in adobo sauce. Thanks for explaining how to cook the tomatillos. Our local stores do not carry them and other family members and friends have been asking about them.

Guest guest Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 If you live in a hot climate, tomatillos will probably grow like weeds. I have even grown them here on the Northern California coast, but they need more heat to be really prolific.
