Amazing Annie’s Salsa Ingredients: 8 cups chopped peeled tomatoes 2 1/2 cup chopped onion 1 1/2 cup chopped green/yellow/red pepper 3-5 jalapenos 6 cloves garlic 2 tsp cumin 2 tsp pepper 1/8 cup salt 1/4 cup cilantro 1/3 cup sugar 1 cup total bottled lime juice, bottled lemon juice or apple cider vinegar 16 ounce tomato paste Directions: Dice all the vegs. Put tomatoes in hot water for 1 min. Take them out of water & peel (the peelings will come off easily). This recipe calls for 8 cups of chopped tomato. You can use any tomato you like, I do a mixture of slicing tomatoes and paste tomatoes because I like the consistency. Combine all the ingredients into a large pot .Bring to a boil for ten minutes. Place into pints or half pints, with 1/2 inch head space. wipe rims, cap and process in a BWB for 15 minutes. There is no safe time set for quarts so stick with your pints. When they have cooled. You will have beauty like no other. *** SOME changes can safely take place *** You can use any kind of pepper you wish, so long as it does not exceed the 1 1/2 cups You can reduce onion, pepper or garlic but you can not increase it You can omit cilantro, but you can not increase it You can omit tomato sauce My Tips: I personally have made this a ton of ways. I find that I like a mixture of 2 parts bottled lime juice and 1 part apple cider vinegar. White vinegar does not taste well in this! Cilantro tends to lose its flavor. I have a mad passionate love affair with cilantro and I tend to drink it straight from the pan when I am cooking it so I put it in anyway, but for a real kick, add it again when you open it. I use whatever peppers are on sale. In this batch I happened to run into a lot of red and yellow peppers, so you won’t see how vibrant it can look with green. I have given these away at Christmas and they are gorgeous with all green peppers!
