THE BEST CANNING SALSA

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.

FRESH SALSA- FOR COOKING OR PLAIN- LIME AND CILANTRO FREE

Steps:

• Chop and combine all ingredients.
• If using the salsa plain, I prefer to simmer it in a saucepan for 20 minutes or until the onions are cooked. If using it in another recipe that involved cooking, I skip this step.
• If a smooth salsa is desired, blend in a blender as needed.
• Cooked, it can keep for several weeks in the fridge.
• Feel free to substitute the parsley with cilantro and add the lime juice if you like of course! Adjust the spices and peppers to your taste. This combination is a little hot, especially if you use 5 jalapenos! Enjoy

SALSA ROJA

Steps:

• Combine 1 large white onion, halved, 4 medium plum tomatoes (about 12 oz.), halved, 1-2 serrano chiles, 4 garlic cloves, and 3 oz. dried ancho, guajillo, and/or pasilla chiles, stems and seeds removed, in a medium saucepan, using fresh vegetables to weigh down dried chiles. Pour in water just to cover. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat. Cover and let sit until dried chiles are rehydrated and fresh vegetables are softened, 20-25 minutes.
• Using a slotted spoon, transfer vegetables to a blender; reserve soaking liquid. Add ½ bunch cilantro, tough stems trimmed, coarsely chopped, juice of 1 lime, 1½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1 tsp. Morton kosher salt, ½ tsp. ground cumin, ¼ tsp. ground cinnamon, and 1 cup reserved soaking liquid. Blend, starting on low speed and gradually increasing to high, until smooth, about 2 minutes. Taste salsa and add more salt if needed.
