Couldn't wait

[Gordie]

I have pulled quite a few tomatoes off the vines the last day or two and so I picked a habenero that was so close to being rip and I roasted a few chilles that I got out of the garden two days ago. I pulled a couple of onions a bit early and a couple of bell peppers AND Yep made a small batch of SALSA and its cooling down now, well cooling off I think I added a bit to much habenero but I like it hot so well see what we end up with. I had a half pack of chilli seasonings so I made it with that.

I love this time of year and when the garden starts give up its boundys.

10-12 tomatoes blanched and peeled

1 bell pepper chopped up

2 small white onions chopped up

1/2 of a habenero diced up

8-10 roasted Green chilles

2 teaspoons odf chilli seasoning

pinch of oinion salt

pinch of garlic powder

1/8th cup sugar

mix all in pot and simmer for 20 min

makes around 1-1/2 qts

Let cool enjoy.

Need to up that habanero count...

sounds great!

I like to grill everything, let it cool a tad and throw it in the blender, pour it out and attack with chips while still warm...

Sounds yummy! I like that! I make a very similar salsa to that too.

i've never simmered [cooked] my salsa, only made it fresh in a food processor. going to try this. good luck.

Thats what I thought but this is hot and makes you sweat just smelling it

I will pull some of he liquid off for other stuff but if I want to thicken it I will add some corn starch... not much

I always strain my salsa and save the liquid - it makes awesome soup base or braising liquid...

Poach walleyes in it and serve over rice...

It also makes a great spicy bloodymary mix.

I too love the eyes poached in the tomato type base.

Im starving!

that sure looks tasty. just picked up some more cukes for the pickle experiment. good luck.

This salsa has a sweet taste for a start then a nice burn afterwards.
