Zesty Salsa for Canning image

I got this years ago from the lady in our church who canned it. I've never made it but I've eaten lots of it! It's the best salsa I have ever had. Especially good with lime tortilla chips or on taco salad (recipe #102234).

Time 1h

Yield 6 pints

Number Of Ingredients 9

10 cups roughly chopped tomatoes
5 cups chopped and seeded bell peppers
5 cups chopped onions
2 1/2 cups hot peppers, chopped, seeded
1 1/4 cups cider vinegar
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons cilantro, minced
3 teaspoons salt
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients except tomato paste in large sauce pot.
  • Simmer until desired thickness.
  • Stir in tomato paste.
  • Ladle hot salsa into hot jars leaving 1/4 inch head-space.
  • Process 15 minutes in a hot water bath.
  • Note: use more hot peppers for a very hot salsa or less for mild.
  • It depends on how hot your peppers are and how hot you like your salsa.
  • I never get close to 2 1/2 cups for our mild salsa.
