VEGETABLE SALSA - THE MAYO CLINIC



Vegetable Salsa - the Mayo Clinic image

Excellent way to get kids (young and old) to eat their veggies. This recipe is easily adjustable to suit your tastes. If you prefer hotter salsa, add finely chopped jalapeno peppers. (I typically use 2 jalapenos, seeded). If you love garlic, add more....if you don't, add less. You could also add chopped black olives. Great served with chips, omelets, chicken, etc. From the Mayo Clinic website. Dietitian's tip: Store-bought salsa can have as much as 400 milligrams of sodium in 1/4 cup. This thick vegetable salsa has much less sodium: 150 milligrams in 1/2 cup. Note: recipe yield somewhat depends on the size of the produce you use.

Categories     Appetizers and Snacks     Dips and Spreads Recipes     Salsa Recipes     Tomato Salsa Recipes

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.

Having salsa on hand is a must in summer. This homemade version is so easy, why even bother with store-bought? We love the deep, slightly smoky flavors in this version.

Time 15m

Yield Makes 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 large tomatoes (1 1/2 pounds)
1 medium white onion, halved
3 jalapenos
3 garlic cloves, unpeeled
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice (from 2 limes)
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Heat broiler, with rack in top position. Place tomatoes, onion, jalapenos, and garlic in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Broil until vegetables are blistered and slightly softened, rotating sheet and flipping vegetables frequently, 6 to 8 minutes (garlic may need to be removed earlier, if it is browning too quickly).
  • Discard garlic skins. In a food processor, pulse garlic and vegetables until coarsely pureed. Add lime juice, season with salt and pepper, and pulse to combine.
