In the town I live in we had a little company 15 miles from us that made the best salsa I have ever had. They closed thier doors on me out of the blue. I took the ingredients label and worked this recipe up from it. It"s as close as I could get it... More

Ingredients
  • 6 pints (12 cups or 3/4 gallon) diced tomatoes, fresh or can, fresh is best
  • 4 large bell peppers, diced, green and yellow add nice color to the salsa
  • 2 large onions, diced, yellow have the strongest flavor
  • Jalapeno's, diced, as many as you like
  • Green Chile Peppers, to taste
  • 4 cloves garlic, mashed -or-1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon white pepper, powder
  • 1 tablespoon red pepper, crushed
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar, or raw sugar cane
  • 1/4 cup vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon cumin

Directions
  1. Put all ingredients in large pot - bring to a rolling boil - turn down heat - Cook 20 minutes.
  2. -
  3. Pour into a sterile glass gallon jar.
  4. Put into the fridge and serve at will.
  5. This lasts us about 2 weeks.
  6. I guess that you could put this in pint jars and can them if you like.
  7. --
  8. You will find that I did not include cilantro in this recipe. I am allergic to it. It tastes and smells like ivory soap to me and then I bloat out and have to go to the hosptial. You may want to use a tablespoon or more of fresh chopped cilantro in your recipe.
  9. ------ ------
  10. Leaving everything raw will result in a salsa with a bright, refreshing taste. Raw salsa is also known as "salsa cruda."
  11. -
  12. Roasting the tomatoes, garlic and/or chiles first will lend a rich, smoky flavor to your finished dish.
  13. -
  14. If you cook the salsa, you'll trade in the fresh taste for a deeper, sweeter one.
  15. --My NOTE--
  16. I use the liquid, if I use 6 cans of diced tomatoes - I use the liquid in the cans. If I use fresh tomatoes, I save the juice off of them. I prefer a thin sauced chunky salsa. It is for this reason I do not use a food processer or tomato sauce in the recipe. Its the way La Casa(??) made it before they closed thier door. And yes I know their is a brand out there called that, but it came out after this place closed up and it is not the same...
