Time 10m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 jalapenos
3 habaneros
1 small onion
2 garlic cloves
2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
1 teaspoon cumin seed
1/4 teaspoon oregano, to taste

salt and pepper
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup water

Steps:

  • Put peppers, onion, garlic, cilantro and cumin in a food processor, and process until finely minced, but not a paste.
  • Or, if you're mincing the peppers by hand-be SURE to wear rubber gloves, as the oil from the peppers is very irritating to skin and eyes.
  • Add seasonings, vinegar, olive oil and water and mix well.
  • Store in a glass container with a tight fitting lid (I use the larger size of baby food jars).
  • Stores well in the refrigerator for a couple of days.
  • Serve on chips, eggs, grilled chicken, in burritos, on tacos, mixed into rice or beans, anything you can think of!

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.

Categories     Sauces

Time 3h

Yield 2 quarts, 100 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 gallon fresh skinned tomatoes
2 cups green peppers
20 ghost chili peppers
20 habanero peppers
4 medium yellow onions
2 tablespoons garlic
1 tablespoon ground chipotle chile pepper
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 cup apple cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Grind all the tomatoes,peppers,chili, onion, garlic through a meat grinder.
  • Do not take out the seeds. add salt and vinegar. Cook outside (on a grill or the like) in a thick bottom stainless pot for as long as it take to reduce by half. about 2 hours. After the consistency is what you would like, add other spices. Continue to cook 10 minutes. At this point I run it inside and can it in half pints and save it for the winter.
  • You should be wearing long sleeves and gloves every time you go near this salsa, and when you wash the dishes in cold water.
  • Do not cook inside!

Tips:

  • Choose the right tomatoes. Roma tomatoes are a good choice for salsa because they are meaty and have a low water content. You can also use other types of tomatoes, such as cherry tomatoes or tomatoes on the vine.
  • Roast your tomatoes. Roasting tomatoes brings out their sweetness and flavor. To roast tomatoes, preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Toss the tomatoes with olive oil and salt, and then spread them out on a baking sheet. Roast the tomatoes for 15-20 minutes, or until they are slightly charred and softened.
  • Use fresh ingredients. The fresher your ingredients, the better your salsa will taste. If you can, use fresh herbs, such as cilantro and oregano. You can also use fresh garlic and onion.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment. There are many different ways to make salsa. You can add different ingredients, such as fruits, vegetables, or spices, to create your own unique salsa. For example, you could add mango, pineapple, or avocado to your salsa. Or, you could add chili peppers, cumin, or paprika.
  • Make a big batch of salsa. Salsa is a great condiment to have on hand. You can use it to top tacos, burritos, nachos, or grilled chicken. You can also use it as a dip for chips or vegetables.

Conclusion:

With its vibrant colors, bold flavors, and versatility, salsa is a beloved condiment that adds a touch of zest to any dish. Whether you prefer a classic tomato salsa or something more adventurous like a pineapple-habanero salsa, there's a recipe out there to suit every palate.
