The acidity of the tomatillos beautifully balances the fat of the pork shoulder, so when serving the tacos there is no need for lime wedges. The onion and additional cilantro provide crunch and fragrance.

Cooks' Note

NOTE: The pork in green sauce will keep chilled for 3 days.

ACCOMPANIMENTS: Warm corn tortillas, Mexican crema or sour cream, chopped white onion, chopped cilantro
