Directions: |
Directions:I wash and chop the veggies and immediately ran through the food mill to remove the skins and seeds and mash everything up. It works a little easier if you first cook the tomatoes and peppers in about 1/2 of the vinegar for a few minutes to soften them up as the peppers are a bit tricky to get through the hand crank food mills.
Next place pickling spices in a spice bag and in large sauce pan or stock pot place spice bag, tomato and pepper puree, and remaining ingredients. Simmer for several hours over low heat to combine flavors and thicken. We like ours fairly thick like a good barbecue sauce, but it you prefer it to be thinner more like a hot sauce that is fine too; you’ll be looking to reduce by about 1/2. Stir frequently and keep simmering low to prevent sticking. Remove pickling spice bag once desired thickness is achieved and remove from heat.
If canning you will process in a hot water bath for 15 minutes for half pint jars. Leave 1/4 inch head space in jars and use the 2 piece metal lids and ring bands. Refer to your canner instructions or the Ball Blue Book for details. |
