Ingredients

10 ounces 275 g pork rinds, cut into bit size pieces
2 pounds 900 g tomatillos
4 jalapeos
½ 65 g medium onion, halved
½ bunch 10 g fresh cilantro leaves, leaves only
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon 3 g salt, optional
1 chicken bouillon cube

Place 8 cups of water in a large pot and bring to a boil. Once boiling, place the tomatillos and jalapenos in the water. Blanch for 12-15 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened.
Once finished cooking, remove to the Vitamix container and add the white onion, cilantro, garlic powder, salt and bouillon cube. Secure the lid.
Select variable 1 and start the machine. Quickly move up to variable 10 and blend for 30 seconds, or to your desired consistency. Stop the machine, and pour the salsa verde into a deep sauté pan.
Heat the salsa over medium heat, and add the chicharrones. Cook until softened, about 15-20 minutes and serve over rice or with tortilla.
