Five Alarm Salsa

Ingredients:

-Dottie Cross TMPJ72B
1 28-ounce can whole tomatoes
-tomato puree, undrained
2 Fresh hot green chili pepper
-seeded and minced,
-or 1/2 c chopped canned gre
-chili peppers
1/2 c Finely chopped white or yell
-onion
2 Garlic cloves; minced
2 tb Lime juice

Instructions:

In a medium saucepan, bring all the ingredients to a simmer over medium-low heat, then cook for 5 minutes. Spoon the salsa into hot, sterilized jars and attach the lids. Process the jars in a boiling water bath for 5 minutes. Remove from the water and cool at room temperature. Note: The canned chili peppers will make a milder salsa than if you use fresh chiles. After opening, you can extend the salsa (and mute the heat a little) by stirring in a cupful of minced bell peppers or thawed corn kernels. A tablespoon or so of chopped coriander leaves adds a nice fillip. Makes about 2 pints. Source: "An Edible Christmas"(A Treasury of Recipes of the Holiday) by Irena Chalmers.
