CANNED SALSA THAT TASTES LIKE FRESH SALSA



Canned Salsa that Tastes like Fresh Salsa image

This recipe is for canned salsa that tastes just like fresh salsa. It is mild to medium in heat, but can be adjusted by adding more or less tomatoes and peppers to taste. Unlike most salsas, you do not need to simmer this salsa for hours before canning. So it tastes very fresh!

Categories     Food

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 15

35 medium to large tomatoes (I prefer Romas)
4 jalapenos (with seeds)
3 green bell peppers
2 red bell peppers
3 onions (any variety)
1 cup vinegar
2 teaspoons cumin powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons + 1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon minced garlic
juice of 1 lime (optional)
handful of cilantro (optional)

Steps:

  • Prepare jars by sanitizing them in bleach water, or in a hot rinse cycle in the dishwasher.
  • Wash vegetables.
  • Chop Peppers and Onions with a food processor or blender. Dump in a very large mixing bowl.
  • Add spices and vinegar to the mixing bowl.
  • Add Lime Juice and chopped Cilantro (optional) to the mixing bowl.
  • Core and chop Tomatoes with a food processor or blender. You can peel beforehand if you'd like, but I rarely peel my tomatoes for this salsa recipe.
  • Strain the juice from the tomatoes before adding to the mixing bowl. I like to catch the tomato juice and can it to use in soups.
  • Combine all ingredients. Taste with a torilla chip. Adjust the heat by adding more tomatoes (for milder taste) or more jalapenos (for a spicier taste).
  • Fill jars with salsa. Wipe the rim clean, and top with a lid and ring.
  • Process jars for 45 minutes. (adjust based on altitude)

Time 1h30m

Yield 17

Number Of Ingredients 13

30 tomatoes, peeled and chopped
10 cups chopped onions
2 cups vinegar
2 (8 ounce) cans tomato paste
2 green bell peppers, chopped
2 red bell peppers, chopped
4 banana peppers, chopped
½ cup white sugar, or more to taste
10 cloves garlic, chopped
8 teaspoons pickling salt
2 teaspoons ground black pepper
½ bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
17 (1 pint) canning jars with lids and rings

Steps:

  • Combine tomatoes, onions, vinegar, tomato paste, green bell peppers, red bell peppers, banana peppers, sugar, garlic, pickling salt, and black pepper in a large stockpot; bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 30 minutes. Mix cilantro into salsa.
  • Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack salsa into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or 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 and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 35 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). Store in a cool, dark area.

EASY HOMEMADE SALSA FOR CANNING



Easy Homemade Salsa for Canning image

This is a nice recipe to use if you are new to canning. I received this recipe at my bridal shower. I've tried lots of salsa recipes and this one is the one I always return to. I also like the fact that it uses basic ingredients... nothing too hard-to-find. You can use your favorite canning method for this. Following the instructions on the box of jars is always a good place to start. It looks like a lot of instructions below, but it really isnt- I just want to make it as easy as possible for a beginner.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 Quarts

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 quarts tomatoes, thickly chopped
1 cup onion, chopped
1 cup green pepper, seeded and chopped
1 cup banana pepper, seeded and chopped (or you can double the green peppers, or use any other kind of sweet pepper)
1 cup jalapeno pepper, chopped (use 2 cups for hot)
1 cup vinegar
3 tablespoons canning salt (I use Morton brand canning and pickling salt)
1/4 cup sugar (use up to 1/2 cup if you like very sweet salsa)
2 tablespoons dried oregano
8 tablespoons cornstarch
8 tablespoons warm water

Steps:

  • A note about peppers: Remember to use caution and always use gloves while handling. I always remove the seeds from mine before chopping but if you like hotter salsa feel free to leave them inches.
  • A note about tomatoes: you do not have to peel them, but most people prefer doing so. To quickly and easily peel them: give them a quick rinse to wash them off. Then drop them into a pot of boiling water for about a minute or until you see them crack and peeling. Remove with a slotted spoon into a large bowl of very cold ice water. Now you can easily remove the peel and the core. I usually put the chopped tomatoes into my 2 quart pitcher to measure the tomatoes.
  • To make salsa: Put all ingredients EXCEPT cornstarch and water into a large stock pot. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Boil over low heat for 10 minutes.
  • Mix together the cornstarch and warm water in a small bowl. Make sure the mixture is very smooth- you dont want any corn starch chunks in your salsa.
  • Add the corn starch liquid to the big pot of salsa, stirring while pouring.
  • Boil on low for 10 minutes, watching carefully so that nothing sticks to the bottom of the pot.
  • Pour into prepared canning jars, leaving about 1" for head space. Seal according to your favorite method.
