MAMA'S SALSA RECIPE
This is my Salsa recipe that has been adapted from many different recipes over the years. I use my food processor to eliminate alot of the work. Add more crushed red pepper to adjust the heat to your desire and less sugar if you find it too sweet. We like the mix of the sweet with the spicy. Every year the tomatoes are different, but as a rule of thumb-a 5 gallon bucket of tomatoes will yield 4 batches of salsa. This year I made 12 batches. When the kids leave for college in the fall they make sure they take plenty since there may not be any left when they come back. This year they are getting a few jars at Christmas that I stashed back!

Steps:
- Sprinkle pickling salt over chopped tomatoes and onions and let stand overnight.
- In the morning drain all liquid from the veggies and place the veggies in a large stock pot.
- To the pot add the vinegar, sugar and crushed red pepper.
- Bring to a boil and boil for 45 minutes.
- Add chopped green peppers, minced garlic cloves and tomato paste and boil for 20 minutes.
- Pour into hot sterilized jars and place in a hot water bath for 10 minutes.
- NOTE: To make Sweet & Hot Salsa I removed all of the garlic cloves, reduced the green peppers to 1 1/2 cups & used 1/2 tablespoon ground (cayenne) red pepper instead of the crushed red pepper. Just a few simple changes but the flavor is amazing!

MOM'S SALSA
This has been a favorite in our family for as long as I can remember. I use it on tacos, chimichangas, with chips, tamales, enchiladas, burritos, scrambled eggs, taco salads, Mexican rice, huevos rancheros, fried potatoes...you get the point. This recipe is an ATTEMPT to get the spices right since Mom doesn't measure the ingredients. (Nor do I.) ;) Feel free to adjust seasonings to your taste. Please note: The salsa needs to sit in the fridge for at least 2-3 hours for the flavors to meld.

Steps:
- Combine all ingredients in a large bowl.
- Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
- NOTE: I use an empty, clean mayonnaise jar to make this. Put all the ingredients in the jar, cover and shake well. Stick in the fridge to have on hand whenever you need it.
Tips:
- Use ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your salsa will be.
- Don't overcook the tomatoes: Overcooked tomatoes will lose their flavor and become mushy.
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your salsa the best flavor.
- Taste your salsa as you go: Adjust the seasonings to your liking.
- Let your salsa chill before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
Conclusion:
Homemade salsa is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used on a variety of dishes. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious salsa that will impress your friends and family.
