Tomatillo Green Salsa

5 c. Tomatillos, chopped (or green tomatoes may be used)
1-1/2 c. Long Green Chilies, seeded and chopped
1/2 c. Jalapeño Peppers seeded and finely chopped
4 c. Onions, chopped
1 c. Bottled Lemon Juice
6 Cloves Garlic, finely chopped
1 tbsp Ground Cumin (optional)
3 tbsp Oregano Leaves (optional)
1 tbsp Salt
1 tsp Black Pepper
Yield: About 5 pints
Procedure: Caution! Wear plastic or rubber gloves and do not touch

your face while handling or cutting hot peppers. If you do not wear

gloves, wash hands thoroughly with soap and water before touching

your face or eyes. Combine all ingredients in a large saucepan and stir

frequently over high heat until mixture begins to boil, then reduce heat and

simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Ladle hot salsa into hot pint

jars, leaving 1/2-inch headspace. Remove air bubbles and adjust headspace

if needed. Wipe rims of jars with a dampened clean paper towel. Adjust lids

and process.
