THE BEST CANNING SALSA

Steps:

• Combine tomatoes, onions, vinegar, tomato paste, green bell peppers, red bell peppers, banana peppers, sugar, garlic, pickling salt, and black pepper in a large stockpot; bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 30 minutes. Mix cilantro into salsa.
• Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack salsa into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 35 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

CABBAGE ROLLS WITH RED SALSA

Steps:

• Prepare salsa: Heat the oil in a saucepan over moderate heat. Add the onion and saute until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, jalapeno and salt and saute for 1 minute longer. Add the tomatoes with their juices and reduce the heat to low. Cook the tomatoes, stirring occasionally, until soft and juices have reduced by half, about 10 to 15 minutes. Adjust seasonings with salt, pepper and sugar to taste. Transfer the tomato mixture to a blender and puree until smooth. Set aside.
• Prepare cabbage rolls: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Core the cabbage and drop it into the boiling water. Boil the cabbage until the leaves loosen and come off easily, using tongs to separate the leaves. Immerse the leaves in cold water, then drain completely on paper towels.
• Heat the oil in a large saute pan over moderate heat. Add the onion and saute until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, cumin and oregano, and saute 1 minute longer. Remove from heat and let cool.
• In a bowl, combine the pork, beef, cooled onion, egg, bread crumbs, salt and pepper. Using your hands, mix well and divide into 12 portions.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare the cabbage leaves by cutting out the tough part of the central stem from the lower part of each leaf. Spread each leaf with a portion of the filling and roll into a cylinder, enclosing the filling completely. (You may need to overlap a few small leaves if you run out of big leaves).
• Place the stuffed cabbage rolls in a 9 by 13inch baking dish, folded side down. Pour the salsa over the cabbage rolls and bake, covered, for 1 hour or until the cabbage is very tender.
• Transfer cabbage rolls to individual plates or a serving platter, sprinkle with the Cotija cheese and serve warm.

WHOLE ROASTED CABBAGE WITH GRAPEFRUIT AND CAMPARI SALSA

Steps:

• Heat the horno, or a home oven, to 350°F (180°C).
• Trim off any damaged outer leaves from the cabbage and trim the core end so it sits flat. With a sharp knife, cut a deep X into the core and put the cabbage in a very large pot with plenty of water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat, and blanch for about 5 minutes. Drain and pat the cabbage dry.
• Pour the olive oil into a large deep cast-iron skillet or Dutch oven and roll the cabbage around in it until thoroughly coated. Cover the skillet or Dutch oven tightly with foil or a lid, place in the oven, and roast for about 30 minutes. At this point, check the cabbage for doneness by seeing how deeply you can pierce it with a long metal skewer or kitchen fork. This will give you an idea of how much more cooking time it needs. If the pot seems dry, add a little water.
• Baste the cabbage with more oil and return it to the oven, uncovered, to roast for 40 to 60 minutes (depending on the size of the cabbage), or until it can be easily pierced all the way through.
• Meanwhile, make the salsa. Using long-handled tongs and a pot holder, hold the grapefruit over a hot fire (or gas burner), rotating it occasionally, until the peel is spotted with char in patches, about 5 minutes. When the grapefruit is cool enough to handle, cut it into eighths and scrape the pulp and juice into a small bowl, discarding the seeds and membrane.
• Choose the two least-charred pieces of grapefruit peel and discard the rest. Set the peel down flat; with a small sharp knife, pare off all the bitter white pith, leaving only the zest. Finely chop the zest and set it aside.
• Toast the walnuts in a small pan for about 5 minutes, until crisped and fragrant. Combine the olive oil, Campari, rosemary, grapefruit pulp and juice, and half the grapefruit zest in a bowl and whisk to combine. Taste and add more grapefruit zest only if you think it needs it.
• To serve, set the cabbage on a carving board like you would a roast. Cut it in half through the core, lay the halves down flat, and carve them into wedges, keeping some core attached to each slice to hold them together. Spoon some salsa over the plated slices and serve the rest on the side.
