For busy cooks who want big flavour without building sauces from scratch, Cool Chile Tomatillo Salsa is a brilliant shortcut to bright, fresh Mexican cooking.
Made with tangy tomatillos, onion, coriander and hot green chilli, this vibrant green salsa delivers a sharp, citrusy kick with gentle heat. Tomatillos – small green fruits widely used in Mexican cooking – give the sauce its distinctive fresh acidity, making it perfect for cutting through rich dishes or lifting simple meals.
It’s lively, punchy and incredibly versatile. Use it straight from the jar as a dip, spoon it over tacos, or warm it gently to create the base for classic Mexican dishes like enchiladas or chilaquiles.
Blend it with ripe avocado for a creamier tomatillo dip, or use it to add instant brightness to grilled chicken, roasted vegetables, eggs or tortilla chips.
A great jar to keep in the cupboard when you want real flavour, fast.

Where is it made?
Cool Chile Co products are produced in the UK using traditional Mexican recipes and ingredients imported from Mexico where possible.
About Cool Chile Co
Cool Chile Co was founded in 1993 by Dodie Miller, who set out to bring the real flavours of Mexico to the UK.
What began as a small market stall selling dried Mexican chillies quickly grew as British cooks discovered the depth and character these ingredients bring to everyday cooking. Over time, the company expanded into producing traditional Mexican salsas, sauces and pastes, using authentic recipes and ingredients sourced directly from Mexico.
When good corn tortillas were hard to find in the UK, the team began making their own using imported masa harina and a tortilla machine. Today, Cool Chile still produces fresh corn tortillas alongside its range of chillies, sauces and Mexican pantry staples.
More than thirty years on, the business remains proudly family run, with Dodie’s son Jackson now working alongside her and the team to continue bringing authentic Mexican ingredients to home cooks and restaurants across the UK.
