Ingredients:

Ingredient Quantity
Tomatoes 40
Onions 3
Green Peppers 5

Garlic 1
Chili Powder 1
Cumin Powder 1 1/2
Salt 1
Tabasco Sauce 1
Habanero Peppers 5
Cilantro 2-3

Instructions:

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Begin by chopping all the ingredients into 1/2″ cubes. Ensure everything is finely diced to enhance the salsa’s texture and flavor.

  2. Mix in Cauldron: In a large cauldron, preferably at least 1 foot tall, mix all the chopped ingredients until they start steaming. This process helps to meld the flavors together.

  3. Decant and Add Tomato Paste: Carefully decant about a quart of clear liquid from the cauldron. Mix this liquid with the small can of tomato paste. Incorporate this mixture back into the salsa as it continues to cook, adding richness and depth of flavor.

  4. Process in Canning Jars: After the salsa has simmered for a while, it’s time to preserve it. Process the salsa for 5 minutes in clean, pre-heated canning jars at 5 lb of pressure. This step ensures the salsa stays fresh for a long time.

  5. Do NOT Cold Pack: It’s essential not to cold pack the salsa to maintain its flavor and texture. The canning process effectively preserves the salsa without the need for additional cold packing.

  6. Check for Seal: Once the jars have cooled, check the lids for a proper seal. A sealed lid indicates that the salsa is safely preserved and ready to be stored.

  7. Store and Serve: Yodar’s Killer Salsa can be safely stored in the pantry for extended periods. However, it’s recommended to chill the salsa before serving to enhance its taste and refresh your palate.
