Steps:
- Wash your jars, lids, bands, and canning tools in hot soapy water. Rinse thoroughly, and set aside to air dry on a clean kitchen towel.
- Place the jar rack into water bath canner, place jars in the canner, and add water to cover. Bring the canner to a simmer (180˚F) for 10 minutes, and keep the jars hot until you are ready to fill them.
- Combine all the ingredients in a medium pot. Bring the salsa to a boil over medium-high heat, reduce the heat to a simmer (180˚F), and cook for 5 minutes.
- Spread a kitchen towel on the counter. Use your jar lifter to lift a jar from the canner. Drain the water back into the canner, and place on the towel. Keep the remaining jars in the canner so they stay hot.
- Use your canning funnel and ladle to fill the jar with hot salsa, leaving 1/2-inch headspace.
- Wipe the rim to remove any residue, center a lid on the jar, and screw on a band until it is fingertip tight. Use your jar lifter to place the jar back into the canner, and repeat with the remaining jars. Try to leave a little space in between the jars.
- Once all the jars are in canner, adjust the water level so it is two inches above the jar tops.
- Cover the canner and bring to boil over high heat. Once water boils vigorously, continue boiling for 15 minutes at altitudes of less than 1,000 feet. Adjust processing time for your altitude if necessary (See Notes).
- When processing time is complete, turn off heat, remove the cover, and allow the canner to cool down and settle for about 5 minutes.
- Spread a dry kitchen towel on the counter. Remove the cover by tilting lid away from you so that steam does not burn your face.
- Use the jar lifter to remove the jars from canner and place on the towel. Keep the jars upright, and don't tighten bands or check the seals yet. Let the jars sit undisturbed for 12 to 24-hours to cool.
- After 12 to 24-hours, check to be sure jar lids have sealed by pushing on the center of the lid. The lid should not pop up. If the lid flexes up and down, it did not seal. Place the jar in the refrigerator and use up within a week.
- Remove the screw on bands and wash the jars. Label, date, and store your jars in a cool, dark place for up to 12 to 18 months.
- Allow at least 3 to 4 weeks for the salsa to develop its flavor. Once the jar is open, refrigerate and use up within a week. Yields about 6 half-pint jars of tomato jalapeno salsa.

Steps:
- Combine tomatoes, onions, vinegar, tomato paste, green bell peppers, red bell peppers, banana peppers, sugar, garlic, pickling salt, and black pepper in a large stockpot; bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 30 minutes. Mix cilantro into salsa.
- Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack salsa into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
- Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 35 minutes.
- Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

Tips:
- Choose the right tomatoes: Select firm, ripe tomatoes with no bruises or blemishes. Roma tomatoes are a good choice for salsa because they have fewer seeds and a meaty texture.
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh herbs, such as cilantro and basil, add a burst of flavor to salsa. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use half the amount.
- Don't overcook the tomatoes: The tomatoes should be cooked just until they are softened, but not mushy. Overcooked tomatoes will lose their flavor and texture.
- Use a food processor or blender: A food processor or blender is the easiest way to make salsa. Simply combine all of the ingredients and pulse until the desired consistency is reached.
- Season to taste: Salsa should be flavorful, but not too salty or spicy. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste.
- Can the salsa properly: If you want to can the salsa for long-term storage, be sure to follow the canning instructions carefully. Improper canning can lead to spoilage and contamination.
Conclusion:
This Alice's tomato ball salsa is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used as a dip, a sauce, or a marinade. It's also a great way to use up fresh tomatoes from your garden. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect salsa every time.
