2 or 4 jalapeno chiles or other small hot chiles, roasted and peeled
Remove stems from chiles; do not remove seeds. Set chiles aside.
Remove papery husks from tomatillos. If using fresh tomatillos, place in a medium saucepan. Add cold water to cover. Bring to a boil; drain. If using canned tomatillos, drain.
Place chiles, tomatillos, cilantro sprigs, and garlic in blender or food processor. Blend until finely ground. Pour into a medium bowl.
Cover and refrigerate overnight. Before serving, add salt to taste.
Reduce or eliminate chiles if you don't want it hot.
