Frozen Homemade Salsa Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Put tomatoes into water for approx. 1 minute to loosen skins. I don't put cherry tomatoes in water since they are small. Drain tomatoes, peel and crush. Chop cherry tomatoes in half.
• 2. Mix all crushed and chopped tomatoes, garlic powder, lemon juice, salt, cayenne pepper and cumin into a large pot. Whip to desired thickness. Bring to a boil. Add red, white, and yellow onions, jalapeno pepper and cilantro. Continue boiling, uncovered,slowly until vegetables are soft and mixture has reached desired consistency, about an hour. Remove from heat.
• 3. Let cool and place 1 to 2 cups of salsa in quart size freezer bags. Lay bags flat and release any air in them and freeze flat.

Steps:

• Peel,core, seed and coarsely chop tomatoes.
• You should have 10 cups.
• Peel and finely chop onions.
• Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat.
• When hot, add onions and garlic.
• Cook, stirring often, until onions are soft.
• Meanwhile, seed and finely chop jalapenos.
• Seed and coarsely chop sweet peppers.
• When onions are soft, stir in tomato paste.
• Add tomatoes, peppers, vinegar, paprika, sugar and salt.
• For extra heat stir in cayenne.
• Bring to boil and lower heat until it gently boils.
• Cook uncovered stirring occasionally until thickened, about 30 minutes.
• Store covered in refrigerator for 1 week or freeze.
• Flavor improves in the refrigerator or freezer.

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:

• Peel and chop tomatoes in a food processor (part until they are liquid and part bigger pieces).
• Chop cilantro ,onion ,garlic and add to tomatoes.
• Chop jalepenos with seeds and put in to 10 quart stock pot.
• Add cumin, salt and vinegar and stir all together.
• Bring to a boil and lower temperature to keep at a low boil for 2-3 hours.
• Boil down to about half to get rid of all the extra tomato water.
• I use 3 cup reusable plastic containers.
• Fill and leave 1/2 inch head space let cool to avoid condensation and ice on top of salsa.
• Place lids on and freeze.
