Texan Peach Salsa Recipe

Bring a large pot of water to boil. Place tomatoes in the boiling water and boil for 5 minutes. Transfer tomatoes to a pot of cold water. Drain peel core and chop cooled tomatoes.

Combine tomatoes with their juices jalapenos wax peppers peaches onion vinegar oregano cilantro cumin sugar and salt in a large pot. Bring to a rolling boil; reduce heat and let simmer for 20 minutes breaking up some of the tomato chunks to create more juice using an immersion blender halfway through cooking time.

Meanwhile inspect 7 pint-sized jars for cracks and rings for rust discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until salsa is ready. Wash new unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.

Pack salsa into hot sterilized jars filling to within 1/2 inch of the top. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any residue. Top with lids and screw rings on tightly.

Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil cover and process for 35 minutes.

Remove the jars from the stockpot and let rest several inches apart for 12 to 24 hours. Press the center of each lid with a finger to ensure the lid does not move up or down. Remove the rings for storage and store in a cool dark area.
