Time 6h5m

Yield 64

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 red onion, chopped
1 white onion, chopped
1 yellow onion, chopped
6 pounds fresh tomatoes, peeled and chopped
2 banana peppers, chopped
3 green bell peppers, chopped
3 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste
½ cup white vinegar
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 ½ tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin
¼ cup brown sugar
¼ cup white sugar
8 pint canning jars with lids and rings

Steps:

  • Combine red onion, white onion, yellow onion, tomatoes, banana peppers, green peppers, tomato paste, white vinegar, garlic powder, salt, cayenne pepper, cumin, brown sugar, and white sugar in a large pot. Simmer until thick, about 3 hours.
  • Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the salsa into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
  • Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2 inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Refrigerate after opening.

CHRIS' MEXICAN SALSA



Chris' Mexican Salsa image

This is an outstanding salsa recipe! I have made it for about two years now. I now make 2-3 gallons each time because all of my family and friends want a jar of it. If you like it a little spicier just add more jalapenos. I use canned jalapenos because they have a much more consistent heat/flavor profile. If I am in a hurry, I will use canned tomatoes as well. Canned tomatoes seem to provide a darker red color. I utilize a food processor to make mine "smooth". If you want it to be more "chunky" hand chop all the vegetables. If you are going to store, please utilize normal canning procedures.

PEACHY MANGO SALSA, CANNED FOR CHRIS!



Peachy Mango Salsa, Canned for Chris! image

Chris aka Chef #1118755 made and reviewed my recipe #68547 and asked about canning it. This is the result of that recipe. I did add garlic and or ginger to it. Yes an optional choice. Used fresh jalapenos in place of the canned green chilies. Be sure not to use over ripe mango's, they need to be firm but fresh. If they are so soft you can't peel with a vegetable peeler they are too soft.
