Salsa 2015 !!!
Almost exactly 2 years ago, I posted my recipe for “Millenial Salsa” that I have been making since the year 2000. Today, I came up with a new recipe after looking at the recipes from 2 friends and adding my own experience. This is just called ~
Here is how I did it. You will need a 2 gallon stainless soup pot.
The following ingredients are minced in a food processor.
2 cups loosely packed fresh basil leaves
1 whole bulb of garlic, peeled of course
20 smallish Jalapeno peppers, stem ends removed
4 cups minced yellow onions
Put all of that in the pot and then add ~
8 teaspoons sea salt
3 Tablespoons chili powder
3 teaspoons ground cumin
1 Tablespoon dried oregano
3/4 cup raw apple cider vinegar
1 1/4 cups lemon juice (I used bottled)
Next, you will chop fresh tomatoes, coarsely, in the food processor. I only used “grape” tomatoes, because that's what I had. Roma tomatoes would be an excellent choice. It took about 1/3 of a bushel. Put them in the pot until it is nearly full.
Carefully bring it to a simmer, stirring often. Add ~
4 small cans of tomato paste and stir well. Heat through.
I processed all of this in pint jars for 40 minutes in my steam canner. (A water-bath needs the same time.)
I got 15 pints. Here are some of them:
It's very good. Of course, you can play with the recipe according to what you have on hand, but do add the vinegar and lemon juice at least.
Enjoy!
