The Steckies R.R. 2 Zurich 565-2122 Tames -Advocate, September 22,1993 From our kitchen to yours By T.A. ghost writer Heavenly Devine 1 Many, many thanks to the reader who was kind enough to send along her recipe for salsa. She not only sent the recipe, but delivered a bot- tle of the salsa as well so that we could sample it. This is a reasonably mild salsa, and she said that she had used a lot more garlic than the recipe called for. When I made it, I used two ted hot peppers in place of the sweet one, to add a little bit more zip. I think that like most recipes, this can be adjusted to suit your fam- ily's taste. Sarah's Piquante Sauce Blanch, peel, seed (if you feel like it), coarsely chop and place in a heavy saucepan about 15 medium tomatoes. Chop and add: 4 mild green chilies 1 large spanish onion 1 large green pepper 1 medium red pepper 3 cloves garlic. Wash, pierce several times and add to the tomatoes 2-6 fresh or dried hot chilies. Add: 1 can tomato paste 3/,4cupsapp.' rte vinegar 1 gip. pickling salt 2 tsp.paprika. Mix well, bri1lg'o.a.boil and simmer one hour, stirring occasion- ally. Addand cook 15aninutesmt'tore: 3 day. finely chopped isceh:a>ha no leaves (optional). Place in sealer jars flllndlo 1t2 inch from the top. (I put one of the whole chil peppers in each jar, so 3t*dli be interesting to see what ef- fect that has on the flavour.) Process in boiling water bath for 20 'minutes for pint jars, 25 minutes for quarts. Label, cool and store in a cool :da kplace. PITCH -IN AND RECYCLE!
