Why? Because you can! And pickle, and jam, or otherwise celebrate the resurgence of the domestic arts our forebears held so dear. Put on your best apron and step into our kitchen, won't you?
I really enjoy canning salsa. There’s nothing better than opening a jar on a cold February day, tasting roasted, spicy, summer-in-a-jar. I could not survive Minnesota winter any other way.
Native to Mexico, this nightshade resembles a small, unripe tomato. Enclosed in their paper-like husk, they develop into a green, yellow, red, or purple fruit. Whether eaten raw, roasted, or made into salsa, they're delicious and sure to please!
Charred bits of onion and the last corn of summer are blended with blistered tomatillos for this tangy salsa. I was conservative on the amount of heat -- add more hot chilies "as desired" and you'll do fine.
Tomatillos, housed in tiny husks, make a great salsa verde. Using cumin and spanish paprika, and thai chiles, learn how to can a salsa verde that will be a great accompaniment to any Mexican dish or alone with some tortilla chips!
There was a time when I thought salsa verde was made from green tomatoes. That time was about a week and a half ago. Now I am a tomatillo convert. This sassy salsa is so easy to make, it will convert you into a fierce food canner! Welcome.
An original (but simple) Tomatillo Salsa recipe with jalpeno and cilantro. Great fresh and easy to put up for the darker days of winter when you want a taste of Mexican sunshine
