Ingredients:
Amount Ingredient
16 cup Peeled tomatoes, diced into 1/2" chunks*
4 cup Diced bell peppers
4 cup Diced red onions
12 x Jalapenos, diced fine
12 x Serranos, diced fine (our jalapenos were pretty mild this year, but the serranos have good heat)
8 x Cloves garlic, minced
4 oz Lime juice - we use the bottled
Chopped fresh cilantro, to taste**
Kosher salt, to taste
Pepper, to taste
Instructions:
Instructions: *I include a few orange, white and yellow tomatoes for both color and because they seem to thicken the salsa a bit. After chopping, add some kosher salt, mix, then drain off the liquid and slowly simmer it to about 1/3 of its original volume, stirring often and watching carefully (Ive burned it a couple of times). Add the cooked down juice back to the tomatoes.

**If the taste of cilantro isnt for you, we have used Italian parsley when cilantro wasnt available. Different flavor, but still good.

Mix it all together, adjust quantities and the spices. If more heat is needed, I add hab sauce. Let it mellow and merge for a day or two in the fridge. I have trouble waiting that long...

If we can it, we pressure can pints at ten pounds for 25 minutes.
