Diane asked about recipes for tomatillos.

In addition to the obvious salsa verde, I've used them with shrimp, scallops 
or even chicken, as well as in lighter vegetarian dishes.  They have a 
pleasant slightly sweet taste and nice firm texture, so goes well on dishes 
such as shrimp on a skewer, maybe with a light dusting of ancho powder on the 
shrimp.

for the vegetarian side, I've served tomatillos with artichoke hearts and 
mushrooms, over pasta with olive oil and garlic, usually with medium heat 
level peppers such as cayenes ;  also over rice.
