Green Tomato Chili Sauce For Canning Recipes

GREEN TOMATO CHILI SAUCE RECIPE

Steps:

• While chopping your tomatoes up make sure to discard any imperfections on their skin or interiors. Place all the chopped tomatoes, onion, capsicum, ginger, garlic and chili along with the sugar and vinegar into a large stock pot. Wrap bayleaves, cloves, cinnamon and peppercorns into a piece of muslin and place into the pot.
• Bring the pot to a boil over a high heat and then reduce to a steady simmer. Allow the mixture to simmer for 30minutes while stirring every 5-8minutes. Towards the end of cooking you will need to stir more frequently to stop it from sticking to the bottom of the pan. It will reduce by a third, once there is no watery liquid sitting on top of the mixture remove the muslin of herbs and spices from the mixture.
• Remove the pan from the heat and using a stick blender wizz the mixture until it becomes smooth. Return it to a low heat and check that there is no water coming to the surface of the mixture, do this for only a few minutes. You do not want any water in your tomato sauce as it will spoil sooner.
• Pour the mixture into sterilised bottles. It will keep in a cool and dark place for six months.
