This salsa should come with a warning...delicious, but SUPER HOT!!!! When you grow tomatoes, there comes a point where you have more than you can eat or give away. I didn't weigh the tomatoes, so not sure if I used a full 6 lbs, but I used a lot. AND scaled back on the hot stuff... only 4 jalapenos and only 1 with seeds. It was inedible by me (husband loved it though and friend said it cured her cold and sinus blockage) until I diluted with a few more matos. Now, there is also a point at the end of the season when you get lots of green tomatoes...my plants had a fungus or something preventing them from growing large, so had a ton of little green 'matos. I used this recipe again with the greenies to slice and red to puree and was just as good (scaled down). But, some people have an aversion to green matos, so don't tell them.. they will think just peppers. Also VERY IMPORTANT!!! Wear gloves. The jalapenos will stay in your skin burning anything you touch for days. Mix that with the acid from matos... ouch. And... DON"T TOUCH YOUR FACE.. esp. mouth or eyes when working with peppers.. this may be a no brainer to some, but I learned the hard way!!
