      A much nicer idea than the one shown. It would bring out the natural sweetness of the tomatoes and peppers and reduce both acidity and the raw edge of the onions. But what the hell do you use the stuff for afterward? It doesn’t seem very appealing to me.

      The Ball Canning book for the Salsa Verde listed in the above comments.
      -In large stainless steel saucepan, combine tomatoes,peppers,onions,garlic and lime juice. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Stir in cilantro,cumin,oregano,salt and black pepper. Reduce heat and boil gently, stirring frequently, for 5 mins. Remove from heat.
      - ladle hot salsa into hot jars, leaving 1/2 inch (1 cm) headspace. Wipe rim, center lid on jar. Screw band down until resistance is met, the increased saw to fingertip-tight.
      - place jars in canner, ensure they are completely covered with water, bring to a boil and process both 8-ounce(250ml) and pint(500ml) jars for 20 minutes: remove canner lid. Wait 5 minutes, then remove jars, cool and store.

    Fried green tomatoes are delicious if you use the right green tomatoe. I use Aunt Ruby Green tomatoes, they r an heirloom and prolific, large and sweet. Yummy. Please try I think you will be surprised. Seeds available at Baker Creek or R.H. Shumways. I use egg/bread crumbs coating. Your garden is beautiful!😁😁

    you can always pickled green tomatoes and they are delicious .
    this is a recipe from the old country Palestine ,
    you could either half the green tomatoes or leave them whole ,
    squeeze as much as you can in a jar ,
    add whatever suits your taste , peppers ,
    garlic ,
    black pepper berries ,
    allspice berries ,
    bay leaf ,
    green hot peppers or red hot peppers ,
    coriander seeds which is the same as cilantro seeds ,
    turmeric powder ,
    it is not necessary to use salt but if you like to that's no problem ,
    in a different deep pot boil water and vinegar , one cup of vinegar for every 3 cups of water ,
    put the jars in the sink and allow some hot water to run around the pickle jars this way they won't crack ,
    then pour the boiling vinegar and water in the jars put the lids on ceiling them immediately ,
    put them upside down on a tray for 2 weeks then a upright for another 4 weeks ,
    bon appetit .
    this method of pickling can be use with just about whatever can be pickled ,cucumber, cauliflower , turnips ,beets , peppers green and red ,
    the main thing to keep in mind is fresh clean vegetables as possible ,
    one of the most delicious pickles are cauliflowers with the addition of turmeric powder to the pickle jar ,
    cauliflower pickles will gain a yellow color ,
    or couple of beats if you want the cauliflowers to have a burgundy color ,
    make sure to dissolve the turmeric powder in the water and vinegar before you added to the jar .
    pickling is one of the ways that my ancestor sustains them self through the harsh Winters for millennials in the land of Palestine .

      I'm thinking that chopper looks cool too! And while I love mincing my garlic the good traditional way (trim, smash, peel and mince...) I found a lovely way to do the job quickly a while back -- *not* a garlic press -- it's like a little curved stainless steel rocker about 8" long. I try to restrain myself to what is truly useful and simple but I am fond of gadgets. To think that I got along with just a good chef's knife (still have it), a pot and cast iron pan, cutting board and a big wooden spoon. Got fancy a lot later with a paring knife and a Dutch oven. And then a real pepper mill, saute pan, another pot, more spoons when I turned 30. But I ramble...

I'll probably end up buying a 3rd one, eventually, because onions tear me up when I hand chop them, but I will probably not use it on potatoes anymore.

    Hi Miss Sarah, enjoyed your video. Have a little trick for your ripening tomatoes and storage after the summer harvest. If you have room in a cool area rip out your plants and hang them upside down this will allow ripening on the vine at a slower rate. And in about a month they can still be picked off the vine. When all your tomatoes are picked put the left overs into the composter and get them ready for next year.

      If you put a banana in a paper bag with the unripe tomatoes, they will ripen much faster. The banana off gasses ethylene gas which quickens the process. This will help most fruits ripen faster and is a reason to keep bananas separate. A big reason you want to store your apples and pears away from other foods for long term storage is that they too emit ethylene gas.
