Mom’s Homemade Salsa

September 5, 2019 by My Farmhouse Table 4 Comments

Mom’s Homemade Salsa

Our growing season this year has been a little unusual. First off, through most of the month of April and all of May it rained and rained. Delaying our crop planting and in turn, delaying our garden planting. Pushing back the harvest times a bit. Our garden tomatoes are just starting to turn and since our shelves were empty, Mom’s Homemade Salsa was the first to be canned this year.

We love this salsa recipe and use it for a variety of meals throughout the year.

Like these Slow Cooker Beef Street Tacos and one of my personal favorites, Chipotle Chicken!

This salsa recipe is a great way to use up a variety of garden produce, not just your ripe tomatoes.

Also onions, green peppers, and jalapenos.

Author My Farmhouse Table

Ingredients

  • 15-20 Tomatoes peeled, seeded, and chopped into bite sized pieces
  • 3 Large Onions chopped
  • 1 Green Pepper chopped
  • 1 can (6 oz) Tomato Paste
  • 1 can (4 oz) Diced Jalapeno Peppers
  • 1 can (4 oz) Diced Green Chilies
  • 1/2 cup White Vinegar
  • 2 Tbsp Sugar
  • 1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
  • 1 Tbsp Canning Salt
  • 1 Tbsp Dried Cilantro
  • 1 Tbsp Cumin
  • 1 tsp Minced Garlic

Instructions

  1. Into a very large stockpot, combine all of the ingredients together.

  2. Bring to a boil and simmer for 1 1/2 – 2 hours, stirring frequently.

  3. If your tomatoes give off a lot of juice and you want a thicker salsa, dissolve 1-2 Tbsp of cornstarch in a small amount of water. Add the cornstarch slurry to the salsa in the last 15-20 minutes of cooking. Salsa should thicken slightly.

  4. Prepare canner, jars, and lids according to manufacturer's instructions.

  5. Carefully ladle the hot salsa into the heated jars, using a funnel and leaving 1/2 inch headspace.

  6. Center lids on jars. Apply and tighten bands.

  7. Process in boiling water canner for 35 minutes, adjusting for altitude. **Increase processing time: 5 minutes for 1,001 to 3,00 ft; 10 minutes for 3,001 to 6,000 ft; 15 minutes for 6,001 to 8,000 ft; 20 minutes for 8,001 to 10,000 ft.

      Bonnie, great question. You cook the ingredients for a while to develop the flavors, but more so to thicken the salsa. Depending on the tomatoes you are using some of them could cause the salsa to be too “runny”. Cooking for the time outlined should allow the salsa to thicken.

      I would say this is a very mild salsa. If you are concerned though, maybe leave out the can of diced jalapenos.

And if you are a Catholic or just looking for a meatless option or two for the next few weeks, here is a roundup of some of my favorites that have been shared on the blog. 

The Baked Cod recipe is on the menu tonight for me! How about you?

A friend recommended ‘The Cheat Sheet’ by @aut A friend recommended ‘The Cheat Sheet’ by @authorsarahadams to me this past week and let me say it was the perfect pre- Super Bowl and Valentine’s Day read that I couldn’t put down and ended up finishing in a day.

I don’t know if I’ve read a book where I caught myself smiling from cover to cover.

It was sweet (almost cavity inducing), WITTY, deliciously flirty, hard to put down, charming, with great comedic timing, and sexy! 

It’s a friends to lovers and fake dating tropes that is right up any Hallmark lover’s alley with a side helping of NFL. 

I found myself laughing out loud, cheering from the sidelines, and BLUSHING 😊. A touchdown in my book! 🏈
May your coffee be STRONG 💪🏼 and your Monday May your coffee be STRONG 💪🏼 and your Monday be SHORT!

I’ve been a fan of Fr. Mike Schmitz and his podc I’ve been a fan of Fr. Mike Schmitz and his podcasts (Bible in a Year) for a while, but I found this quote of his the other day and it was as though I had been hit over the head with a wooden spoon. 

How often are we happy in life just to survive? I get it life is ROUGH- survival mode is sometimes all we can handle in a season, but after I read this quote I thought to myself- am I living too small of a story? Sometimes yes, I get stuck in my routines. The edges, things that push me, things that scare me- it’s uncomfortable. I doubt myself and what I’m capable of… but He doesn’t.  I’m going to cling to that truth as I continue to grow my own story. ❤️
Eucalyptus- I’ve wanted to grow it in my flower Eucalyptus- I’ve wanted to grow it in my flower garden for years- but I hear it’s  finicky and slow to germinate. You’ll fail far more than you will succeed. 

A lot like life, right?

Well, there’s one thing I’ve learned you can never grow if you don’t plant the seeds. So as we kick off a new year here’s your sign to plant the seeds in the areas of your life you want to see grow.

Faith. Relationships. Yourself. 

Sure you may fail more then you succeed, but you’ll never know if you don’t even start. ❤️ 

Thanks for sticking around for my unqualified TED talk 😜

One of my favorite verses in the Bible and with our first frost of the year expected tonight, I’m taking @floretflower advice and with this last bucket of blooms, savoring the beauty that is Summer on the farm. 

As much as I dislike the idea of not going out into my garden every few days to pick these stunners for bouquets to fill my vases and jars, I am happy to say goodbye to weeding, watering, and that big spider in the cosmo patch that we mutually agreed to stay out of each others way and we both will be fine 😜

Also… shoutout to one of my favorite new finds on Insta… @philipbowenmusic on the strings (seriously this dude is super talented!)

I’ve enjoyed going through this experience with her, including random texts and Snapchats of hormonal cries, nesting episodes, and of course, food cravings- which is how the baby earned the nickname of “Scoops”. 

A few weeks ago, out of the blue, I get a message that simply said- lemon bars. I guess when food cravings hit, they hit hard. So what is a best friend to do, but find my recipe for these Easy Homemade Lemon Bars.
