Gary's Freezer Salsa

Ingredients

10 cups ripe tomatoes, chopped (10-15 large tomatoes)

1 tbsp cooking oil

2 large onions, chopped

8 cloves garlic, minced

8 jalapeno peppers, finely chopped (or other hot peppers)

2 green peppers, choppes

¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped

3 tsp cumin

1 tsp ground coriander

1 tsp granulated sugar

2 tsp salt

½ tsp cayenne pepper (or 1 tsp hot sauce)

1 tsp black pepper

Directions

Core, seed and coarsely chop tomatoes (peeling is optional). You should get about 10 cups.

Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Saute onions and garlic until softened, about 3-5 minutes.

Add tomatoes, hot peppers, green peppers, cilantro, lime juice, cumin, coriander, sugar, salt, cayenne pepper and black pepper.

Bring to a boil, stirring often. Reduce to simmer and cook, uncovered until thickened to desired consistency, at least 60 minutes.

Allow salsa to cool completely.

Serve or fill freezer bags or containers leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Freeze for up to 6 months.

Note

If the consistency resembles a stew, blend the salsa before serving/storing.
