Instructions
In a large saucepan, cover the tomatillos, onion, garlic and jalapeo with water. Bring to a boil and simmer until the tomatillos lose their bright green color, 8 minutes.
Drain, transfer to a blender and let cool.
In a small, dry skillet, toast the cumin seeds over moderate heat until fragrant, shaking the pan, about 2 minutes.
Transfer to a spice grinder and let cool slightly.
Grind the cumin to a powder and add it to the blender along with the cilantro and sugar; puree until smooth. Season the salsa with salt and serve chilled.
Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Riesling, Sparkling Rose
Mexican works really well with Pinot Noir, Riesling, and Sparkling rosé. Acidic white wines like riesling or low-tannin reds like pinot noir can work well with Mexican dishes. Sparkling rosé is a safe pairing too. You could try Alexana Revana Vineyard Pinot Noir. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 42 dollars per bottle.

Bright, forward aromas of black cherry, dried herbal andfloral notes are lifted by molasses and anise blossom. Massiveblack cherry flavors are decadent and integrate well with spice,cola and cocoa tones. The texture is lush and rich, finishing withround soft tannins that provide perfect structure for cellaring.
