Bonehead said:Family recipes are great but please double check your processing times with either Ball or your extension folk. They will follow USDA safety guidelines. For mixed products like salsas, you will want to process for the longest time of whatever your ingredients are. I like to use my pressure canner for anything questionable. And be cautious of low acid tomatoes, they often need a splash of lemon juice. Have fun with it.


Very well put, Deb -- I agree

All of my canned tomato products (regardless of what type of tomato used) get a hit of vinegar or lemon juice.
