This is my mom's recipe. It is a wonderful homemade chili sauce that makes FANTASTIC sloppy joes (see Mel's Sloppy Joes , Mel's Sloppy Joes), or can be used for eggs rancheros(?). Ingredients:
24 large tomatoes, diced |
4 green bell peppers, diced |
2 red bell peppers, diced |
5 large yellow onions, diced |
3 tablespoons salt (heaping) |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1 teaspoon allspice |
1 teaspoon ground cloves |
1 teaspoon dry mustard |
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
3 1/2 cups vinegar |
2 1/2 cups brown sugar |
1 cup celery, grated |
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients in non-aluminum pot (recipe is acidic).
2. Simmer ingredients over medium heat, stirring occasionally and slightly mashing vegetables as they cook.
3. Cook until thickened (about an hour).
4. Place in 1-pint (1/2-liter) canning jars.
5. Let stand, cool, and seal using hot-water canning method.
6. NOTE: Can place in 1/2-pint (1/4-liter) jars for smaller sloppy joe recipe using 1-lb ground beef.
