How to Make Apple Tomato Salsa

  1. Wash and chop the apples, tomatoes, red onion, and jalapeño. Roughly chop the cilantro.
  2. In a large stainless steel or enamel saucepan, combine the chopped apples, tomatoes, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, and olive oil.
  3. Add the salt and sugar; stir gently to combine.
  4. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the apples have softened slightly and the flavors have melded.
  5. Remove from heat and let the salsa cool completely.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more lime juice for extra tang, sugar for more sweetness, or jalapeño for extra heat.
  7. Ladle the cooled salsa into clean, sterilized jars, leaving ½ inch headspace.
  8. Wipe the rims of the jars clean, and seal with lids and rings.
  9. Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (at altitudes up to 1000 feet). Adjust processing time according to your altitude if necessary. Refer to a reputable canning guide for proper procedures.
