Steps:
- Skin tomatoes. (I place tomatoes in boiling water for 45-60 seconds or until skins split - remove from water and peel.)

- Combine all ingredients in large sauce pan. Bring to boil. Lower heat and simmer 45 minutes stirring often.
- Pour into hot sterile jars. Wipe down rim of jar. Screw on lid and hand tighten.
- Place in boiling water bath and process for 15-20 minutes.
- Tip: Be sure and label your batches. As the summer progresses peppers can get hotter. I also sometimes blend the batch before I can.

Tips:
- Use ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your salsa will be. Look for tomatoes that are deep red in color and free of blemishes.
- Roast your tomatoes: Roasting the tomatoes before making salsa enhances their flavor and gives them a smoky, caramelized taste. You can roast the tomatoes in the oven or on the grill.
- Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better your salsa will taste. If possible, use fresh herbs, onions, garlic, and peppers.
- Don't over-process your salsa: Salsa should have a chunky texture, so don't over-process it in the food processor or blender. Pulse the ingredients just until they are combined.
- Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and lime juice to taste. You may also want to add other spices, such as cumin, chili powder, or cayenne pepper.
Conclusion:
Salsa is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of dishes. It's perfect for dipping chips, tacos, burritos, and enchiladas. You can also use it as a marinade for chicken or fish, or as a topping for grilled vegetables. No matter how you use it, homemade salsa is always a hit. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy recipe, give this Grandma's Salsa a try. You won't be disappointed!
