Canned Salsa

This is the recipe I used for canning salsa this summer.  It is yummy.  I didn't add all the jalapenos (just one large) and I can hardly taste any heat.  Also, I increased the processing time cause we're high altitude and I'm paranoid about canning... :)

Ingredients

    • 8 cups tomatoes, peeled, chopped and drained
    • 2 1/2 cups onions, chopped
    • 1 1/2 cups green peppers
    • 1 cup jalapeno peppers, chopped
    • 6 garlic cloves, minced
    • 2 teaspoons cumin
    • 2 teaspoons pepper
    • 1/8 cup canning salt(kosher salt)
    • 1/3 cup sugar
    • 1/3 cup vinegar
    • 1 (15 ounce) cans tomato sauce
    • 1 (12 ounce) cans tomato paste

Directions

  1. Mix all together and bring to a slow boil for 10 minute.
  2. Seal in jars and cook in hot water bath for 10 minute. (or 20-25 if you're high altitude and paranoid like me... my book says add 10 min for our elevation.)
  3. This is a medium salsa. This is also a chunky salsa so if you want a smoother salsa cut your veggies into smaller pieces (or process in food processor).
  4. Yields 3-6 quarts or pints. (I got 7 pints.)
