Salsa Recipes from Spicy to Mild and Sweet

It's no secret the food is getting ever more expensive at the grocery store, and salsa is not exception. The good news it that salsa can be homemade and canned for a fraction of the cost.

Great salsa recipes are sometimes hoarded like family heirlooms, but luckily, there are those willing to share their treasures. Salsa recipes, unlike many others, should not be tampered with very much, some dishes almost invite experimentation, but a good salsa recipe is more like a delicate work of art. Best not to mess with a good thing...

Canning Jalapenos And Making Great Jalapeno Pickle Recipes

Jalapeno peppers are probably the most popular of the peppers and for good reason, they have a wonderful taste with plenty of "heat" but not overbearingly so, as is often the case with Habanero peppers. Depending on the recipe or use, both pickled and non-pickled Jalapenos have their place. Pickled Jalapenos are excellent for a garnish or topping to so many foods, plus the added vinegar has some health benefits as well.
Here are some great sources for canning Jalapenos, pickled as well as non-picked. Easy picked Jalapenos can also be made in the refrigerator without canning at all, which is great if you need a batch on short notice.

Putting relish on dishes can add a whole new dimension of flavor, and enhance basic foods. While relishes are commonly made from pickles, there is no reason not to be a little more inventive! Living in the south has tailored.

The hotness of jalapeno peppers varies quite a bit. It is a good idea to sample the peppers before using them just to get an idea. jalapenos can vary from "yawn" to "time to drink the swimming pool" so be careful. Jalapeno varieties can also have more subtle flavor differences depending on genetics as well as environmental growing conditions.
