AMAZING SALSA
I've always loved salsa, but it's been really hard to find the perfect recipe. I like my salsa to have a sauce to it and many veggies and just the right amount of heat. I tend to like things a bit hotter then your average person but even so, I consider this recipe to be mild for a hotter salsa, add a hotter peppers like Habaneros or if you're bold ghost peppers. It took many attempts to get this recipe right so I thought id share it with you. "I've caned salsa before, but I've never tried to can this salsa. I'm a novice canner, and I'm not sure if this recipe would keep in cans. Please msg me if you can shed some light on this."

Steps:
- Clean chilies with a damp cloth, then pull of the stems and remove the seeds and veins "I keep the seeds for the chili arbol because I like it hotter".
- Place peppers in a single layer on a baking sheet.
- Roast in 350°F oven for 2 to 5 minutes or until you smell a sweet roasted aroma, checking often to avoid burning.
- Remove from oven and soak in the boiling water for about 30 minutes or until cool "I like to break up the chilies before I soak them".
- Put peppers and 2 cups of the soaking water into a blender "Add more if the sauce is too thick, it will thicken slightly after simmered".
- Add 10 peeled tomatoes, 1/2 onion, garlic, salt, vinegar, lime juice, sherry and brown sugar "If you do not know how to peel tomatoes check out this instructional video on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmLR5ayrJzU".
- Blend until smooth "Can be done in batches if the blender is too small".
- Pour the mixture in a medium saucepan and simmer for 30 minutes.
- Remove from heat and allow to cool.
- Dice up the remaining vegetables into cubes and add to the sauce.
- Chill over night.
- Enjoy.
