World Famous Salsa Recipes

Steps:

• Place the tomatoes, onion, garlic, lime juice, salt, green chiles, and cilantro in a blender or food processor. Blend on low to desired consistency.

Steps:

• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Combine tomatoes, onions, serrano peppers, and garlic in a large bowl; drizzle with vegetable oil and toss until lightly coated. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
• Broil in the preheated oven until vegetables begin to brown, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer vegetables to the bowl of a food processor. Add salt and cumin; pulse a few times until desired chunkiness is reached. Add cilantro and pulse a couple of times to combine. Stir in lime juice.

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.

Steps:

• Stir the tomatoes, green bell pepper, onion, cilantro, lime juice, jalapeno pepper, cumin, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Serve.

Steps:

• Combine the first 9 ingredients.
• It will have great flavor, but very little heat at this point. To spice it up, add whatever hot peppers you like. Personally, I like to add one half habanero or scotch bonnet along with one half jalapeno for some decent heat and flavor. If you don't want it too hot, add one half to one whole jalapeno. All I do is cut off the stem and finely mince the peppers, seeds and all. Even better is to freeze the peppers and use a microplane to grate them into a fine mash. Please wear rubber gloves when handling the diced peppers and do not rub your nose or eyes!
• Another flavor variant is to use lemon juice instead of lime juice.
• Letting the mix sit for an hour will allow the flavors to meld better especially if you add hot peppers.

Steps:

• Puree tomatoes in food processer for 10 seconds.
• Add remaining ingredients.
• Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
