Green sauces are made with tomatillos/green peppers/etc. and has a more vegetal flavor, while red sauces are made with tomatoes/red peppers/etc. andtastes like tomatoes, roasted red peppers, and the like. Spice level is irrelevant. Put more simply, the green sauces taste "green" and the red sauces taste "red"; and are better on different things. The good ones are hot as hell regardless of color.

Green is kiki and red is bouba. Got it.

I fire roast my tomatillos and serranos before making my salsa, that’s why it’s green and hot as hell, and also doesn’t taste anything like raw veggies.
