George's Chili Sauce Recipe

Yield:  about six pint jars.

4 quarts peeled, cored, chopped tomatoes ( about 24 large)

2 cups chopped onions

2 cups chopped sweet red peppers (about 4 medium)

1 hot red pepper (we use the dried pepper flakes)

3 Tablespoons salt

3 Tablespoons mixed pickling spices

1 Tablespoon celery seed

1 Tablespoon mustard seed

2 1/2 cups vinegar

Combine tomatoes, onions, peppers, sugar and salt.  Simmer 45 minutes.  Tie spices in a cheesecloth bag; add to tomato mixture; cook until very thick, about 45 minutes, stirring frequently

Prepare home canning jars and lids according to manufacturers instructions.

Add vinegar to tomato mixture; cook to desired thickness. Remove spice bag.  Carefully pour hot sauce into hot jars, leaving 1/4 inch  head space.  Adjust caps.

Process 15 minutes in boiling water bath canner. 

Greens and Jeans Raspberry Pepper Jam

Makes 6 half-pint jars

Ingredients:

5 cups fresh raspberries

2 jalapeno peppers, (we used 5, 2 with seeds)

1 red or green bell pepper

4 cups sugar

1/2 cup apple cider vinegar

1 package powdered pectin.

Directions:

Wash and pick through raspberries.  Crush berries and place in a large pot.  Chop the bell peppers and jalapenos (wear gloves!)  Add the chopped peppers to the pot along with the sugar and vinegar.

Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring often until the sugar dissolves. Simmer for 15 minutes.  At this point, stir in the pectin.  Bring to a rolling boil and boil for 1 to 2 minutes.  Ladel into hot half-pint jars and process in boiling water canner for 10 minutes. 

Lynette's Ketchup
Ingredients:
3 gallons plus 1 quart tomato juice
4 cups white sugar
3 cups white vinegar (could use part cider)
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1/3 cup salt
1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper or 1 teaspoon dried mustard
1/2 tsp. allspice
1/2 tsp. dried cloves
1 and 1/2 tsp. cinnamon

Carefully boil the juice, stirring frequently, until juice is reduced to about half.  Add 1/2 of the vinegar and all of the sugar and salt.  Cook an additional 30 minutes, stirring frequently, then add the rest of the vinegar.  Just before ladling it into the jars, add spices and mix well.  Until recently Lynette processed it in a boiling water bath.  But she warns that because of the lower acidity of today's tomatoes, it would probably be prudent to pressure process pints at 15 pounds (Highland, Utah altitude) for 15 minutes.

Hope you are having a great tomato harvest this year,

European Peasant Bread
From the Stake Newsletter

Ingredients:

3 cups lukewarm water

1½ tablespoons granulated yeast

1½ tablespoons salt

½ cup rye flour

1 cup wheat flour
5 cups unbleached all-purpose flour Cornmeal for the pizza peel (when you bake)

Mix the yeast and salt with the water in a 5-quart bowl. Mix in the remaining ingredients, except cornmeal, without kneading. Mix until all the flour is incorporated into the dough but do not knead the dough.

Cover dough and allow to rise at room temperature until it rises and collapses, about 2 hours, or chill overnight. Dust the surface of the dough with flour and cut off a 1-pound piece (grapefruit size). Dust with more flour and shape into a ball. Allow to rest on a cornmealcovered pizza peel for 40 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees with a baking stone placed on the middle rack. Place an empty broiler tray on a different rack with 1 cup hot water inside.

Sprinkle the loaf with flour and using aserrated knife, slash with a lines pattern on the top of the bread. Slide the loaf directly onto the hot stone. Bake for about 35 minutes or until the top is deeply brown and very firm.

Cool bread before eating. Enjoy!
