Chili Sauce 1959 (VRP 001)
Spicy and full of zest, this Chili Sauce is hot enough to be served with seafood cocktails. Try it, too, for a spot of lusty flavor with a roast or with grilled hamburgers.
Ingredients
- 6 pounds (about 18 medium sized) ripe tomatoes
- 1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped green pepper
- 1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped onion
- 1 tablespoon finely minced hot red pepper
- 1 1/2 cups cider vinegar
- 3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 teaspoon whole cloves
- 1 3" stick cinamoon
Instructions
- Set out a large, heavy sauce pot or kettle and three 1 pint jars with covers
- Rinse tomatoes
- Taking a few at a time, dip tomatoes in boiling water for several seconds
- Peel, cut out, and discard stem ends
- Cut tomatoes into quarters
- Discard the seeds
- Coarsely chop the tomatoes (enough to yield 9 cups)
- Measure into the sauce pot the vinegar, brown sugar, and salt
- Tie spices in a spice bag (see Cucumber Pepper Relish)
- Add spice bag to the sauce pot and put over medium heat
- Stir until sugar is dissolved
- Bring mixture to boiling
