What is a good substitute for a tomatillo?!
Answers: Tomatillos are actually in the gooseberry family. I don't think they taste like green tomatoes at all. You sure your market doesn't carry them? Ask your produce guy..they're pretty widely available.
You can substitute green tomatoes and a small amount of lemon juice.
You can use a tomato, and then add a little green food coloring =]
green tomatoes
I'm not sure what you are making but you can use eggplant as a substitute.
I believe the Idea is to keep your sauce Green.
Yet add the flavor and fluid of tomato..
