Oh so good. This is a condiment, used the same as ketchup or picallili. Wonderful with pork and chicken. I use it as an ingredient in my cooking. I like to mix it with a few cans of different beans for a quick, easy Calico Beans. I also pour it over meat loaf, and love it on my burgers. Don't use a food mill on this one, you want it chunky. Ingredients:
3 lbs tomatoes, peeled and chopped, about 6 cups |
2 cups onions, small dice |
6 cups ripe peaches, peeled and chopped in half inch pieces |
1 cup celery, small dice |
2 sweet green peppers, small dice |
1 hot red pepper, deseeded if you want less heat, and minced |
1 1/2 cups cider vinegar |
