Salsa Making 101

whew! what a busy day! Krystle & I decided that today was a salsa making day. Salsa Recipe:
8 cups tomatoes (scald in boling water, peeled and diced)
1 cup each green and yellow pepper (chopped)
6 jalapeno peppers (no seeds) (chopped)
2 jalapeno peppers (with seeds) (chopped)
2 cups cooking onions (chopped)
3-4 cloves minced garlic
Mix together and add
3/4 cup vinegar
2 tbsp salt
2 tbsp basil
3/4 tsp pepper
1 tsp parsley
Combine and cook uncovered for 1 to 1 1/2 hours until thickened. Remove from heat and add 2 small tins of tomato paste. Pour into jars and seal. So we spent the next several hours, scalding, peeling, chopping, stirring, cooking, pouring and sealing the many jars of salsa. Even after 10 batches, which gave us 39 jars of salsa, Krystle was still able to be silly. Blessings
