This one is not cooked, as you were asking for, but it is a great one OUR KT Tadpole shared and so many, including me, have used.

Tadpole's Salsa
28.8 oz can whole tomatoes
6 oz. can pickled jalapenos, seeded (or about 6 large)
1 or 2 cloves garlic
1/2 tsp. lime juice
salt and pepper to taste

Puree garlic in food processor until minced. Follow with the remainder of the ingredients and process until fairly smooth. That's it!!!

Serve with home baked whole wheat pita chips!

Can I add sugar to my canned salsa recipe?

Agree, sugar poses no problem. And if the vinegar is too tart for you you might consider trying bottled lime juice as an alternative. Many of us prefer it. Cider vinegar rather than white also mellows out the flavor quite a bit. Dave

Thanks for the tip. Does the hot water bath canning cook the fruit and vegetables? My salsa don't have any cooked ingredients. The recipes are simple -- dice and combine all ingredients. Then let mixture sit for a while to enhance flavors. I have substitued canned chili peppers for fresh and played around with different fruit combinations. The salsa seem to work with seafood or poultry. Here are some recipes: Seafood Tacos with Fruit Salsa For the seafood tacos: 2 T lemon juice, 1 tsp chili powder, 1 tsp ground allspice, 1 tsp olive oil, 1 tsp minced garlic, 1 - 2 tsp grated lemon peel, 1/2 tsp ground cloves, 1 lb or any firm fish filet (halibut, snapper, basa or whatever you like), corn or flour tortillas, 3 cups washed and torn romaine (or whatever greens you like), 1 small red onion thinly sliced Prepare fruit salsa and set aside (recipe follows) Combine lemon juice, chili powder, allspice, garlic, lemon peel and cloves in small bowl. Rub fish with spice mixture. (fish may be cut in pieces first, if you like) Broil, grill or bake fish. Heat tortillas until hot and pliable. Top each tortilla with some lettuce, red onion, a piece of fish and fruit salsa Supposed to make six servings, but I don't think a pound of fish goes that far. Fruit salsa: 1 small ripe papaya, peeled, seeded, diced, 1 firm small banana, diced, 2 green onions minced, 3 T chopped fresh cilantro, 3 T lime juice, 2 jalapeno peppers, seeded & minced Pineapple Salsa 1/2 cup finely chopped fresh pineapple, 1/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper, 1 green onion thinly sliced, 2 T lime juice, 1/2 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced, 1 T chopped fresh cilantro or fresh basil Mango Salsa: 2 medium ripe mangoes peeled and chopped (also good with papaya), 1 small cucumber, peeled, seeded and diced, 1 ripe tomato, chopped, juice of 1 lime, pinch of salt, 1/2 - 1 small fresh chili pepper minced or Tabasco to taste, 1 T chopped fresh cilantro Tomato Orange Salsa: 3 ripe tomatoes diced, 4 scallions chopped, 1/2 - 1 fresh green chili seeded and minced or 1/3 tsp cayenne, 2 tsp freshly grated orange peel, 1 orange sectioned and seeded, each section cut in half, 2 T fresh lemon juice, 1/2 tsp ground cumin, 1/2 tsp ground coriander, salt to taste

It can't be done....freezing breaks down the vegetable pieces. You can freeze a cooked salsa, which is thicker and less "fresh"...just put it into a covered container and freeze it.. Linda C

Glenda-I wrote that one down today and am planning to make it but the one I remember was cooked and I wanted to try it because it sounded good to me at the time.My DH and DS love salsa and chips and it would be much cheaper to make than to buy ready made and probably better for them than the stuff in the jar.I just need to find a recipe that they will really like.The recipe I'm thinking about may not have even been here but I'm thinking it was.
Maryann-It may have been Lori's.Hopefully she will see this and post it.

Lots of recipes for every taste if you click the link. Click on salsa in the menu on the left.

WARNING! DS once made Ken's Too Hot Salsa in our kitchen for an event he was having. The fumes overpwered all of us, even the dogs went outside. It's a really great salsa if you like LOTS of heat. Just be sure to ventilate the area you are preparing it in well.

Amber and I make this from her tomatoes each year, it is my nieces recipe. You can make it a little sweeter if you like. Very good.

I have a great recipe for Texas pico de gallo. It is like salsa but with fresh things and not pureed.

1 Cup coarsely chopped tomatos
1/2 Cup coarsely chopped onion
1 Tablespoon finely chopped fresh cilantro
2 or 3 fresh serrano peppers minced (more if you like it hot)
1/2 Teaspoon salt

Mix fresh ingredients together.
Sprinkle with salt and mixture.
It can be stored in fridge for a few days, but is best eaten right away.
