How to Make Tomato Green Chile Salsa

  1. Combine all ingredients in a large saucepan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently.
  2. Reduce heat to low, simmer uncovered for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Adjust heat as needed to maintain a gentle simmer.
  3. While the salsa simmers, prepare your pint jars by washing them thoroughly in hot, soapy water and sterilizing them according to your preferred method (boiling water bath or dishwasher). Sterilize the lids and bands as well.
  4. Ladle the hot salsa into the prepared pint jars, leaving 1/2-inch headspace at the top of each jar.
  5. Wipe the jar rims clean with a damp cloth to remove any spills, which can prevent proper sealing. Place the lids and bands on the jars, tightening them fingertip tight.
  6. Process the filled jars in a boiling water bath canner. Processing time depends on altitude:
  7. - 0-1,000 feet: 15 minutes
  8. - 1,001-6,000 feet: 20 minutes
  9. - Above 6,000 feet: 25 minutes
  10. Carefully remove the jars from the canner and allow them to cool completely. You should hear a satisfying 'pop' as the jars seal. Check the seals by pressing down on the center of each lid; if it doesn't flex, it's sealed.
