Next time, just add your jalapenos a couple at a time to the rest of the ingredients and taste test to see how spicy you want to go. It won't ruin the recipe to cut way back on jalapenos. In fact, I only had two jalapenos when I was ready to can salsa this summer...and I got a very mild but delicious salsa. So my advice is just to play around with the right amount for your family.

Thanks for providing this recipe for salsa, making your own is a great thing to do! Salsa is soo good the only problem is it can cost quite a bit if you buy it regularly at your local grocery store.

Wow what fun to hear the jars ping... It was my first time canning and my boyfriend and I had a blast. I added 2 Tablespoon Cumin and 3 Bunches of Cilantro to the recipe along with 6-8 banana peppers... and used all 3 colors of bell peppers. My salsa is a hit at work today and beautiful. Thank you for sharing your tips and receipe. Looking forward to making some pumpkin bread next!

Love this info, Elise! Thanks bunches for taking the time to share it here. Alas, this was not a great year for tomato plants in my neck of the country...I planted 40 tomato plants, and though my cherry and grape toms did well, my larger tomatoes did not. So we had a lot of little tomatoes to munch on and have in salads and a few for slicing. I am glad to have this info here b/c next year's garden will be better...hopefully...and I'm definitely trying the strainer idea! Blessings! Mary Wow! Love this info, Elise!

All that juice is saved and frozen and used later for soups, stews and sauce. As for heat i use 2 jalapeno and 2 anaheim and this is mild, 1 more of each is medium. When i make this its more like 8 quarts for me--its been a very good year for tomatoes. thank you so much for sharing such a good recipe, i've made 5 batches so far. i have your recipe down to a science but along with your set up i added a lrg. bowl with a strainer on top- i sqeeze all the tomatoes until most of the seeds come out and add a 6 oz can of paste. there is still plenty of juice still in the tomatoes as evidenced when processed.
