How to Can Salsa
I was so excited to go out to my garden last week and find loads of ripe tomatoes, onions, and peppers. I knew immediately it was time to make some salsa! This is Elise’s recipe, and our family has been making it for YEARS. It is kind of a “cheater” recipe because we use a seasoning packet, but it saves time and still has great flavors, and tastes fresh and amazing. If you are new to canning, never fear! Check out this GREAT post about canning for beginners written by my good friend, Mel, over at Mel’s Kitchen Cafe. It’s a fantastic resource that will help you learn how to can correctly. She explains it FAR better than I ever could, and goes through the whole process in detail for you.

How to Make The Salsa Spicy
This salsa recipe for canning is a recipe for the mild salsa. If you would like more of a hot salsa, which is my personal preference, you can still make this. To amp up the spice, simply blend some Serrano peppers with the jalapeños, seeds removed (1-2 for medium spiciness, 3-4 for hot). Be sure to wear gloves when chopping the peppers… just in case!
