Diner's Freezer Salsa

Recipe #12275 | 5½ hours | 3 hours prep | add private note

By: diann godbey

This is a salsa developed because I hate to can and my husband insists on planting at least 100 tomato plants each year. It lasts about a year in the freezer. Last year we ran out at Christmas. Update, I taught my husband how to make and can salsa so we are canning now, probably better. We also have added the limes and some habaneros to taste for the hotter salsa.

6 3-cup servings (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Peel and chop tomatoes in a food processor (part until they are liquid and part bigger pieces).
  2. 2
    Chop cilantro ,onion ,garlic and add to tomatoes.
  3. 3
    Chop jalepenos with seeds and put in to 10 quart stock pot.
  4. 4
    Add cumin, salt and vinegar and stir all together.
  5. 5
    Bring to a boil and lower temperature to keep at a low boil for 2-3 hours.
  6. 6
    Boil down to about half to get rid of all the extra tomato water.
  7. 7
    I use 3 cup reusable plastic containers.
  8. 8
    Fill and leave 1/2 inch head space let cool to avoid condensation and ice on top of salsa.
  9. 9
    Place lids on and freeze.

    Loved it...a little spicy. We used red and yellow peppers instead of green. It looks very colorful!

    I don't know what this stuff is like after it's been frozen and then thawed out, but the jar I kept aside and put in the fridge yesterday is AWESOME!!! This will forever be my salsa recipe! I boiled it a little longer too, but other than that, made exactly according to your directions. I'd rate it a 'delayed warmth' mild salsa. DEEEEELICIOUS! Sep 13/06: FINALLY ran out of bought salsa and got to open a frozen container of this — YUM! A little thinner than the original jar I had kept in the fridge, but still very tasty.

    This was an easy recipe and tastes great. It freezes well. The only change I made was to add a little more garlic and a little chili powder... just to spice it up a bit.
