Oregano is yummy put oregano in it.

I made a salsa the other day. All you need for sauces is a blender, some jars, and your necessary ingredients. Salt and/or lemon juice work as decent preservatives so you can store your sauce for up to a couple of weeks in the fridge.

By the way, "canning" is a boiling process I only do with vegetables from my garden like peeled tomatoes or some homemade pickles. Those could store well for a year and have been stored that long before with no difference in taste.
For generic red Italian food sauce, oregano goes well like >>8783236 said, and I like to include a little onion and garlic powder, too.


So, OP, what kind of pasta are we talking here? Spaghetti?

>>8783230
The more fresh ingredients you can use, the better it will be. I'd use fresh basil, onion, and garlic if possible.

fresh onion basil and garlic is no problem. and yeah probably some kind of spaghetti, although not with spaghetti noodles. oh and i don't have a blender i'm going to have to hand mash this stuff

what kind of peppers should i use for a hot sauce? i'm thinking chile habanero and jalapeno. i need some ratios of these ingredients mang (amerifat btw)

Also American. Y'know those store-bought jalapenos at Kroger stores or Walmarts that are flippin' huge? Go to those stores, get three jalapenos and three serrano peppers. You want more spiciness? Throw a Habanero in. Protip, the Kroger family stores sometimes stock dried ghost peppers which give a lot of heat and a smokey flavor to the sauce.

The recipe is:
2 cans of diced tomatoes (1 large and 1 small)
3 jalapeno
3 serrano
(Other peppers at your discretion)
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon cilantro
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
(A dash of onion powder too)
1/3 teaspoon cumin
1-1.5 teaspoons salt (careful not to put too much)

Get a fat can of diced tomatoes and one of the smaller cans, and, frankly, get a blender for this recipe because it would be a hassle to do by hand. I've made this salsa since child.

Are you that lady who told me how to grow better tomatoes by using Epsom salts and water as a fertilizer at a Dillon's in Kansas? Because I've never heard of or seen the phrase "out the yinyang" anywhere else but one conversation about growing tomatoes.

Well like 60-70 days if you had a head start.
It fucking snowed today, unbelievable, I want to transplant but the US is having so much fucking fun with weather modification that it's literally been snowing for 7 months.

This man knows what he's talking about. Ghost peppers are fucking amazing in mixed pepper salsa like this too.

>>8783379
i'll probably substitute real tomatoes, how many do you think i should use?
>>8783447
lul this isn't >>983872

also i'm probably going to substitute your powders for fresh ingredients, i'll have to play with it a bit to get the ratios right though i'm sure.

anybody have any info on salsa or hot sauces? i lump them together because, although i'd puree the hot sauce veggies, i want to use minimal vinegar. (sagedoublepost)
