You can use all jalapenos or half jalapenos and half bell peppers (which don't need to be peeled) if you can't find New Mexico or Anaheim peppers: Also, here's a pickle recipe that should cause an uproar because it specifies the "open kettle" method, and if you BWB it you'll ruin it: Tomatillo Green Salsa Recipe By Dawn Jacobson 5 cups tomatillos -- chopped 1 1/2 cups New Mexico green chile -- roasted, seeded and chopped 1/2 cup jalepenos -- roasted, seeded and chopped 4 cups onions -- chopped 1 cup lemon juice, bottled 6 cloves garlic -- finely chopped 1 tablespoon cumin -- (optional) 3 tablespoons oregano -- (optional) 1 tablespoon salt 1 teaspoon black pepper Combine all ingredients in a large saucepan and stir frequently over high heat until mixture begins to boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Ladle hot salsa into pint jars, leaving 1/2-inch headspace. Adjust lids and process in a boiling water canner 15 minutes at 0-1,000 feet altitude; 20 minutes at 1,001-6,000 feet; 25 minutes above 6,000 feet. Source: "New Mexico State University College of Agriculture & Home Yield: "5 pints" * * * Tomatillo Salsa Verde 6 1/2 pounds tomatillos -- chopped large 1 1/2 pounds mixed green chiles 1/2 pound chopped yellow onion 1 cup lemon juice or vinegar [I used white vinegar] 1 tsp. garlic powder 2 Tbsp. dried oregano 2 Tbsp. salt 1 Tbsp. whole black pepper Combine all ingredients in a large covered saucepan and cook over low heat until mixture begins to boil; simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Liquify with a "stick blender" and bring back to a boil. Ladle hot salsa into hot jars, leaving 1/2-inch headspace. Adjust lids and process in a steam pressure canner at 10 pounds for 20 or 25 minutes for pints or quarts, respectively. Makes about 8 pints. * * * PICKLED GREEN TOMATOES 3 Gal. green tomatoes, cut into chunks 1 Qt. onion, cut into eighths 3/4 Qt. chopped jalapeno 5 Lb. sugar 3/4 Cup salt 3 Qt white vinegar 1 Tsp. black pepper Bring last four ingredients to boil. Add vegetables and simmer 3 minutes or until the color changes. DO NOT BOIL! Pack into sterile jars. |

Measure 7 cups into a large stainless steel saucepan; add peppers, onion, garlic and lime juice. Bring to a boil. Stir in cilantro, cumin, oregano, salt and pepper; simmer 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Ladel in to hot sterilized jars to within 1/2 inch headspace. BWB 250 ml jars for 15 minutes, 500 ml jars 20 minutes. From 2003 Bernardin Guide to Home Preserving. |
