Hot pepper warning

Can't edit a post from my phone (tried logging in, went to edit post, post shows up bit will not allow edits) so I will just create a new one.

Consider wearing disposable gloves when cutting up the hot peppers.  My first experience making salsa, I washed up then headed out to mow grass in 90° weather.  After wiping the sweat from my forehead, my eyes began to burn. It was so bad I worried I might go blind! Washed again, but was afraid to touch myself afterwards. Lol.

I don't wear gloves, but I am more careful. You've been warned. ;-)

Homemade Salsa

I planted some hot peppers this year in a topsy turvy contraption.
Maybe they didn't get enough sunshine, cause they weren't very
productive plants. But the peppers I've picked so far are pretty good.
I've got jalapeno, habanero, & banana. My neighbor also planted
several peppers, so I've got to also enjoy cayenne.

Now I'm on a kick of making homemade salsa. After several batches,
Kelly said I should write down what I put in, since I made it up as I
went. So what better way to document it than my blog. Keep in mind I
like it spicy hot.

Ingedients:
2 cans of diced tomatoes
1 fresh tomatoes (just cause I had it)
1 tablespoon cumin
2-3 garlilc cloves
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 onion
2 tablespoons lemon juice

(Add peppers to you liking)

This time I made a batch of mild and hot at the same time.

Mild:
2 long peppers (my neighbor grew these, not sure what they are. But at
thebeginning of the year these were not hot. Today they made the mild
sauce extra spicy)
1 small green jalapeno
1 cayenne

Hot:
3 long peppers
3 small green jalapeno
1 red jalapeno
1 cayenne
1 habanero

Directions:
If your using fresh tomatoes, boil a small pot of water. Place the
whole tomatoe in boiling water for 10-15 seconds. Use a pair of tongs
to fish it out onto the cutting board. Cut the ends off, then the skin
should peel right off (which is why we used boiling water). I've read
that the peeling can be chewy if you don't do this. You can toss the
boiling water out now.

Put canned tomatoes & lemon juice in a medium sized pot. Chop up all
remaining ingredients. I leave mine pretty big, as they will be
blended later. Put everything in the pot and place over medium heat on
the stove. Stir every couple minutes. The flavors will blend together
during this part of the process.

Once the juices start to boil, pour the chunky mixture into your
blender or food processor. I only blend mine for a few seconds, so
there are still small chunks. Now is the perfect time to taste test
and add flavor as needed. I was happy with mine. The mild was hotter
than I intended, and I probably could have used half as much sugar.
Once I am satisfied, I let it cool down and refridgerate until I'm
ready to beak out the cornchips.
