Thank you! I've been looking for a good chunky salsa recipe for canning. My first big batch of salsa (28 pints) came out too thin this year so I renamed it unintentional chili base/ smooth cooking salsa. It'll still get used in chili, eggs, sloppy Joe's etc. We're still getting tomatoes from the garden and I have a bunch in the freezer for another batch of chunky dipping salsa. I'm thinking if I let the frozen tomatoes thaw and scoop out the meat and chop I can use that half and half with fresh tomatoes. Thoughts?
@@heatherbare3198 yes using the frozen tomatoes with the fresh tomatoes should work fine. And you can use the thinner salsa for taco soup as well, you’ve got great ideas and tomato stuff is usually pretty easy to use somewhere. Let me know how it goes, I’m certain you’re gonna love it!
@@WagonWheelHomestead21 You were not kidding! This salsa is delicious!!! Beautiful balance of flavors and not too spicy. I quadrupled the recipe and used half fresh, half frozen tomatoes and worked out perfectly. I have your recipe printed out and tucked in my canning books to reference next year. Thanks for the great recipe!!
