Zubereitung von Texas Style Picante Sauce
- Combine jalapeño peppers (or habaneros), garlic, tomato paste, sugar, vinegar, alum (if using), cumin, chili powder, oregano, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and pepper in a blender or food processor.
- Blend until you reach your desired consistency. For a chunky sauce, pulse a few times. For a smoother sauce, blend until completely smooth.
- In a large saucepan, combine the blended mixture with the crushed tomatoes.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Then, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- While the sauce simmers, prepare your jars. Wash 1-pint jars and lids in hot, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and sterilize by boiling for 10 minutes.
- Carefully pour the hot picante sauce into the sterilized jars, leaving 1/2 inch of headspace at the top of each jar.
- Wipe the rims of the jars clean, place lids and rings on tightly.
- Process the filled jars in a boiling water bath for 15 minutes (adjust processing time based on your altitude – consult a canning guide for specifics). Alternatively, process in a pressure canner for 5 minutes at 10 pounds of pressure.
