DIRECTIONS
1. Bring water to boil in covered pot.

3. While the potatoes simmer, puree the tomatillos, chipotles, and adobo sauce, lemon juice, sugar , and salt in a blender. When the potatoes are cooked, drain them and quickly plunge into cold water to stop cooking. Drain again and place in serving bowl. Add tomatillo dressing and toss well.

This is an amazing dressing for cold pasta salad. Puree all the ingredients - except the cilantro and celery - in the food processor, toss with bow tie pasta, chopped fresh tomatoes, the celery and the cilantro, and chopped black olives. So delicious. Thanks for this recipe. It was worth a relentless hunt for canned tomatillos! Molly
