Zesty Salsa for Canning
By: Marg (CaymanDesigns)
Aug 10, 2004
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 (It's-easier-than-making-tacos Salad (taco Salad)).
6 pints
Ingredients
- 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
Directions
1
Combine all ingredients except tomato paste in large sauce pot.2
Simmer until desired thickness.3
Stir in tomato paste.4
Ladle hot salsa into hot jars leaving 1/4 inch head-space.5
Process 15 minutes in a hot water bath.6
Note: use more hot peppers for a very hot salsa or less for mild.7
It depends on how hot your peppers are and how hot you like your salsa.8
I never get close to 2 1/2 cups for our mild salsa.

I used this recipe for my first salsa canning experience. It turned out very well, other than the strong flavour of the apple cider vinegar that is still in the salsa. I don't care for this and will maybe try white vinegar next time with this recipe. Others like it, but certainly not the best I've tasted.

This recipe is very good, I used an assortment of bell peppers and about 2 1/2 jalepenos. It turned out just right, not too spicy not too mild... I will make this again and again, the only thing I will change next time is the amount of cider vinegar, it was a little too sweet. Thanks

WOW! This is a very nice salsa to can. I did only use about 3/4 c of seeded jalepeno's and it was Z-E-S-T-Y! Maybe my crop is just hot. The only thing I might add is that when I shared my salsa with a veteral canner (this is the first time I have canned) she stated that I should have skinned the tomatoes by dipping the whole tomatoes in boiling water then chilled water and removing the skins. The only effect leaving them on had was I have some curled skin in my salsa but hey next time I will know to do that.....live and learn. Thanks for sharing a wonderful recipe.

I would give more stars if I could. Everyone that has tried this salsa has raved about it!!!! I have removed my grandmas recipe from my box and replaced it with this one. It gets better the longer it sits. I made a few batches. The second one I added a few tablespoons of cumin as well. Either way it's GREAT!!!! Thanks soo much for this recipe!
