My garden is about done for the season, I still have a few Egg Plants, Cabbage and Carrots and Tomato plants out there so this past week I was looking for a simple recipe on ‘How to Make Canned Salsa.’ The better half always wanted to try to can some salsa but we never get around to it; after printing out several recipes from the net, what do I find in the archives but Bride's Salsa Recipe...by Dave Omak. http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/t/126578/brides-salsa-recipe
I’m not a big fan of store bought Salsa but being that I had canned about 40 quarts of tomatoes and still have about 60 pound to tomatoes to do up and more in the garden, I thought this might be a good time to try some Salsa.
We made the Bride’s Salsa by Dave Omark and had a little left over so we let it cool down in the fridge for a taste test. Wow!! After it cooled we had a little taste, we looked at each other and knew we had a winner. Back in to the kitchen we go, that night we made a second batch, this time we used my hard neck garlic and little corn added to it.
The battery for my camera was low so I could only take a picture of the first part of the second batch..
Had a taste test of the second batch...
They say "The third time never fails" so after a late night / mid morning W.Mart run for more pint jars, we made the third batch.. This time we added two cans of tomato paste, we were short on the red peppers so I added some of my smoked red bell peppers.. I'm thinking a pint of salsa and a quart of tomatoes would be a good base for some fantastic chil.
Thanks for posting the recipe Dave, The Better Half said that You Must Eat Good..
