    Tomato and Pepper Salsa

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe Pin Recipe

    My garden bonanza culminated last week in a couple of days of creating sauces and salsas. Tomato & Tomatillo Salsas + Chili BBQ Sauce! I had peppers, tomatoes, onions and tomatillos to work with. I created a tomato and pepper garden salsa with fresh tomatoes, onions and peppers. Next came a verdant green tomatillo salsa and finally, a hot chile barbecue sauce. Here are the recipes for all three sauces. I am already planning a bigger garden for next year so I can make more of these delicious sauces and salsas!

    We enjoyed the salsa with chips and on tacos.

    Equipment

    • Food processor optional
    • 1- quart stockpot
    • Disposable gloves highly recommended
    • Dishtowel highly recommended
    • Freezer bags or containers

    Ingredients
      

    • 10 lbs tomatoes
    • 1 cups fresh cilantro
    • 1 large onions
    • 6 garlic cloves
    • 5 medium jalapeños
    • 2 Habanero or scotch bonnet peppers to taste
    • 1 cup chopped green peppers
    • 1 tablespoons cumin
    • ⅛ cup salt
    • ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
    • Juice of 3 limes

    Instructions
     

    • Peel and chop tomatoes. You can use a food processor to make it easier, but leave large pieces.
    • Chop the cilantro, onion, garlic and add to tomatoes in a 10 quart stock pot.
    • Chop jalapeños and habanero (or scotch bonnet) peppers) and put in the stock pot. You can core and seed them for less heat. I recommend wearing disposable gloves and a mask or tying a dish cloth around your mouth and nose. Wash your hands with hot soapy water after working with the peppers and avoid touching your face or eyes.
    • Add cumin, salt and vinegar to the stock pot and stir to mix.
    • Bring to a boil and lower temperature. Keep at a low boil for 2-3 hours or until the volume is reduced by half.
    • Cool the cooked salsa completely before putting it in freezer bags or containers.

    This spicy hot BBQ sauce has a decidedly Mexican flavor to it with the addition of the cumin and chili powder. I used it for a cooking sauce for grilled shrimp and for serving with fish tacos.

    I am Mary, the blogger behind "Oh That's Good!" I am a former nurse, former hobby farm blogger, former vintage shop owner, and current food blogger. I live with my husband and our little mutt Tucker in a lovely retirement community. I am cooking for two and taking inspiration from old cookbooks, magazines, and memories of watching my mother and grandmother cook. I like reducing my food waste and exorbitant grocery bills! I am busy rewriting my recipes for two servings with the option of adjusting the recipe up to four or six servings with just one click.
