We love tomatoes! Every year, when our tomatoes come in, I make spaghetti sauce, can some of the tomatoes, do sun dried tomatoes with the romas, and make fresh salsa. I usually can the salsa, too. I love making it extremely hot, as it tends to mellow in the canning process. Sometimes, though, the heat just comes right on through. It is not a raw type of hot, but with the canning, it tends to age quite nicely. I keep a crock of salsa going all Summer and Fall. I don't can it until the flavors have had a change to mingle and the raw taste is gone. (about 3-4 days)
Ingredients:
1 lime, juice of
6 tomatoes (peeled and diced)
