MY HOMEMADE (HOT) SALSA



My Homemade (Hot) Salsa image

This salsa is similar to one at the local restaurant we used to frequent when we lived in Georgia. I went home and experimented to try to come up with one that tasted like the restaurant's and this is what I came up with. If you like your salsa even hotter you can adjust the hot seasonings to your taste. I always get lots of compliments when I serve this. Don't let all the ingredients scare you off...it's really easy to make. No accurate time on prep and actually the longer you let it simmer the better it is. I don't know how many exact servings you get but it does make alot. (The flavor will be more intense if you use the fresh herbs but its just as tasty with the dried)

THE BEST CANNING SALSA



The Best Canning Salsa image

This is a great use for tomatoes from the garden and nothing tastes better than homemade. Enjoy!

Provided by cookingmama

Categories     Appetizers and Snacks     Dips and Spreads Recipes     Salsa Recipes     Tomato Salsa Recipes

Time 1h30m

Yield 17

Number Of Ingredients 13

30 tomatoes, peeled and chopped
10 cups chopped onions
2 cups vinegar
2 (8 ounce) cans tomato paste
2 green bell peppers, chopped
2 red bell peppers, chopped
4 banana peppers, chopped
½ cup white sugar, or more to taste
10 cloves garlic, chopped
8 teaspoons pickling salt
2 teaspoons ground black pepper
½ bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
17 (1 pint) canning jars with lids and rings

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.

CAUTION: EXTREMELY HOT! SALSA



Caution: Extremely Hot! Salsa image

Categories     Sauces

Time 10m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 jalapenos
3 habaneros
1 small onion
2 garlic cloves
2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
1 teaspoon cumin seed
1/4 teaspoon oregano, to taste

salt and pepper
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup water

Steps:

  • Put peppers, onion, garlic, cilantro and cumin in a food processor, and process until finely minced, but not a paste.
  • Or, if you're mincing the peppers by hand-be SURE to wear rubber gloves, as the oil from the peppers is very irritating to skin and eyes.
  • Add seasonings, vinegar, olive oil and water and mix well.
  • Store in a glass container with a tight fitting lid (I use the larger size of baby food jars).
  • Stores well in the refrigerator for a couple of days.
  • Serve on chips, eggs, grilled chicken, in burritos, on tacos, mixed into rice or beans, anything you can think of!

Tips:

  • Choose the right tomatoes: Roma tomatoes are the best choice for salsa because they are meaty and have fewer seeds.
  • Roast your tomatoes: Roasting the tomatoes before making the salsa will give it a deeper, richer flavor.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the salsa will taste.
  • Don't overcook the salsa: Salsa should be cooked just until the ingredients are heated through.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to taste the salsa before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed.
  • Let the salsa chill: Chilled salsa is more flavorful than warm salsa.

Conclusion:

Salsa is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used to add flavor to a variety of dishes. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make the best salsa at home.
