I prefer a mix of jalapeno and Serrano. I'd definitely not use olive oil. Use a neutral oil such as avocado or just omit all together. You can also use an actual avocado if you prefer it creamy.

I make this often and it's great, reminds me of home since I don't live in TX anymore.

I make a similar looking sauce often with Jalapenos, seranos, garlic, onion, and avocado oil. I just steam 12-15 jalapenos, 5-6 seranos, 2 cloves of garlic
, and 1/4 onion for ~15 minutes, drop in the blender with a bunch of avocado oil (and sometimes ripe avocados) and blend until very smooth. You can de-seedthe peppers first and add back as needed if you don't like it as spicy.

Definitely going to have to give this one a try! Thank you!

Can you make the ninfas one the day before and refrigerate, or would it be better day of fresh?

With the avocados, it's better fresh. I'll turn a bit brown overnight, but you can stir it to help with the color.

We make it ahead all the time. Either earlier in the day or the night before. I think it's better that way.

My wife makes green sauce all the time. Basically the same recipe as the tacodeli one above. Tastes better after it's been in the fridge overnight, in my opinion.

If you don't feel like making it HEB sells it: https://www.heb.com/product-detail/tacodeli-creamy-jalapeno-salsa-dona-hot/5453008

The habanero is soooooo good.

It should be noted that lots of cheap ass places are going cheap and make salsa falsa with calabacitas instead of avocados. Maybe that is acceptable for this thread, but it should be pointed out that recipes posted here are calling for avocado-based salsa verde, and its not clear from the photo in the OP if that green stuff is made from avocados or calabacitas.

So you can try to make avocado salsa verde with peppers and tomatillos at home but that doesn't mean you're getting it at your local taqueria. Personally it is all green goop to me, but that is beside the point.
