INSTRUCTIONS
At the end of each month, The Cook & Kitchen Staff select some of the best recipes sent to Recipe-a-Day during the month, and post them to the entire membership. Today's offering is a fantastic salsa-from-scratch recipe -- and we know one when we see one, as we've been experimenting with homemade salsa for several years! Recipe-a-Day Member Sharron informed us that "this recipe has been in our family for about 42 years and has been a delight for all. I hope that the good readers of your recipes enjoy this great salsa. What a savings making it yourself as compared to store-bought, and it has much better texture and fresh flavor." Yields about 6 Pints Prepare all chopped ingredients as directed, or adjust quantities of jalapeno and hot banana peppers to produce desired range of salsa taste temperatures, from mild to extremely hot. Place all ingredients in a large stock pot and simmer until thickened. Pour hot mixture into sterilized jars, leaving about 3/4 inch space between salsa and top of jar. Seal, following directions for a hot water bath or pressure cooker. May store for at least one year when properly sealed.
