Salsa Verde Roasted And Canned Recipes

SALSA VERDE RECIPE FOR CANNING

Steps:

• 1. Combine all ingredients in a large stockpot and bring to a simmer on the stove. Simmer for 20 minutes to an hour to allow the tomatillos to break down and flavors to meld. Taste and adjust salt accordingly. 2. Ladle sauce into prepared pint mason jars leaving 1/2 inch headspace, and process in a water bath canner for 15 minutes for pints. (Adjust for altitude) 3. Remove from the canner and allow to cool at room temperature before checking seals to make sure all jars have properly sealed. Place any unsealed jars in the refrigerator for immediate use.

ROASTED TOMATILLO SALSA VERDE CANNING RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425˚F.
• Peel the husks off the tomatillos and rinse them well. Cut the tomatillos in half and divide up into the rimmed baking sheets or roasting pans.
• Peel and cut your onions into chunks. Add to the roasting pans.
• Wash the jalapeño peppers and add them whole to the roasting pans.
• Peel your garlic, and scatter into the roasting pans.
• Roast the vegetables in a preheated oven until everything is slightly softened and charred, about 15-20 minutes. Flip half way through so the vegetables roast evenly.
• Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the roasted vegetables cool for 5-10 minutes.
• Wash your jars, lids, screw bands, and canning tools in hot soapy water. Rinse thoroughly to remove all suds. Set aside to air dry on a clean kitchen towel.
• Place the jar rack into water bath canner, place jars in the canner, and add water to cover. Bring the canner to a simmer (180˚F) for 10 minutes, and keep the jars hot until you are ready to fill them.
• While wearing gloves, remove stems and seeds from the jalapeño peppers. You can keep the seeds if you like more heat.
• Working in batches, add the roasted vegetables and their liquid to a food processor. Process until smooth, and then pour into a large sauce pot. Continue processing the vegetables in batches until done.
• Add the lime juice, cilantro leaves, salt, pepper, cumin, and stir to combine. Bring the pot to a simmer (180˚F), and then turn the heat to low and keep warm.
• Lay a dry kitchen towel on the counter. Use the jar lifter to remove a jar from the canner. Drain the water back into the canner, and place on the towel. Keep the remaining jars in the canner so they stay hot.
• Use the canning funnel and ladle to fill the jar with hot relish, leaving 1/2-inch headspace.
• Wipe the rim to remove any residue, center a lid on the jar, and screw on a band until it is fingertip tight. Use the jar lifter to place the jar back into the canner, and repeat with the remaining jars.
• Once all the jars are in canner, adjust the water level so it is two inches above the jar tops.
• Cover the canner and bring to boil over high heat. Once water boils vigorously, continue boiling for 20 minutes at altitudes of less than 1,000 feet. Adjust processing time for your altitude if necessary (See Notes).
• When processing time is complete, turn off the heat, and let the canner cool down and settle for about 5 minutes.
• Spread a dry kitchen towel on the counter. Remove the cover by tilting lid away from you so that steam does not burn your face.
• Use the jar lifter to remove the jars from canner and place on the towel. Keep the jars upright, and don't tighten bands or check the seals yet. Let sit undisturbed for 12 to 24-hours to cool.
• After 12 to 24-hours, check to be sure jar lids have sealed by pushing on the center of the lid. The lid should not pop up. If the lid flexes up and down, it did not seal. Refrigerate jar and use up within a week.
• Remove the screw on bands and wash the jars. Label, date, and store in a cool, dark place for 12 to 18 months. Allow at least 3 to 4 weeks for the salsa to develop its flavor. Once the jar is open, refrigerate and use up within a week. Yields about 6 pints.

FIRE ROASTED SALSA CANNING RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat gas grill on high. If using charcoal, do not use lighter fluid or the tomatoes and peppers will pick up that taste!
• Rinse tomatoes and peppers. Core tomatoes and score a small "X" in the blossom end. Place tomatoes and peppers on hot grill and close lid. Turn frequently until peppers are charred and blistered and pretty much black all over. Tomatoes should have some blackened spots and blistered enough to remove the skins. Remove from grill. Place peppers in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap to steam for several minutes. Let tomatoes cool a bit on a cutting board until you can handle.
• Peel and chop the tomatoes and place in a large bowl, being sure to include all the juices. You should have 7 to 8 cups of chopped tomatoes and juices from 5 pounds of tomatoes. You need at least 7 cups for safe canning purposes.
• Wearing gloves, peel poblano peppers, the blackened skins should come right off. Pull out stem and discard. Cut poblanos open and remove seeds. Finely chop peeled and seeded poblanos. You should have 1 cup, and no more than 1½ cups, again, for canning purposes.
• Place fire roasted tomatoes and poblanos in a large pot and add the remaining ingredients, adding just 1 tablespoon of sugar to start. Bring to a boil and then turn down and simmer for 10 minutes.
• Using an immersion blender or food processor, carefully purée the salsa to a smoother consistency. In a food processor and working in batches, pulse 8 - 10 times and when all finished, return to the pot. Taste for seasonings and if too vinegary, add another tablespoon or so of sugar. If too sweet, add a little more vinegar to balance. Bring blended salsa back to a boil and simmer a few more minutes.
• Have sterilized pint jars and lids and screw caps ready (they should all be washed in very hot water). Use a canning funnel and ladle hot salsa into jars, leaving a ½-inch head space. Wipe rims clean with a damp cloth and carefully place lid on and screw cap in place. Process in a boiling water bath for 15 minutes, then place upright on counter for 24 hours (see recipe notes for link to USDA Canning Guidelines). You will hear popping sounds as the jars seal. If after 24 hours, any haven't sealed, put in refrigerator to use now.
• Store jars of salsa in pantry and use within a year. Enjoy!

ROASTED SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Lay tomatillos, Anaheim peppers, onions, jalapeno peppers, and garlic on a large rimmed baking sheet.
• Broil in the preheated oven until tomatillos release their juices, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove tomatillos and garlic from the baking sheet; flip Anaheim peppers, jalapeno peppers, and onions and return to the oven. Continue to broil until peppers are blackened, about 5 minutes more. Remove from the oven and let cool until safe to handle, about 5 minutes.
• Peel away blackened parts from vegetables without taking off too much flesh. Transfer tomatillos, Anaheim peppers, onions, jalapeno peppers, garlic, cilantro, lemon juice, and salt to a food processor and pulse until well combined and chopped. Refrigerate salsa until cold, at least 30 minutes.

ROASTED TOMATILLO OR GREEN TOMATO SALSA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Place tomatillos or green tomatoes in a large roasting pan. Add chilies, onion, garlic and mix.
• Roast vegetables for 30-35 minutes, stirring at the halfway mark, until the tomatillos/tomatoes are starting to break down.
• Scrape the roasted vegetables into a large stockpot and add the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil and simmer, uncovered, about 10 minutes. While simmering, prepare water bath canner, lids & 4 pint or 8 half-pint jars if planning to can (wash freezer-safe jars or containers for freezing, or use freezer baggies)
• Blend the salsa further, if desired, with an immersion blender and the ladle into prepared jars leaving 1/2-inch headspace for canning (you'll need a good 1+ inch headspace for freezing to account for expansion).
• To Can: Wipe rims, seal, and process in a boiling water bath for 15 minutes, turn off burner, remove lid and let sit for 5 minutes. Remove jars to a cloth-lined surface and let cool 12-24 hours before testing the seals, labeling, and storing for up to a year.
• To Freeze: let salsa cool and then transfer to clean freezer containers. Label and freeze for a year.
