Rotel Tomatoes - Homemade Copycat Recipe

 

Make your own Rotel Tomatoes to suit your taste. You can make it hot or

mild.

1 1/2 quarts peeled chopped seeded tomatoes (about 4lbs)

12 jalapeños or hot chili peppers, diced

1 teaspoon salt

 

Place in 4 quart saucepan, and simmer until reduced to 1 quart.

 

(Measure 1 quart water into saucepan in advance, and mark on outside of pan,

to help you judge).

 

The cans at the grocers are 10 oz in size, so freeze in 1 cup portions.

 

This way you can adjust the hot peppers to suit yourself, and making small

batches is so easy!

 

Remember, freezing makes the peppers hotter.

Hi Zena:  This is a wonderful idea - in season i stock up and spend a whole day

making up almost the same recipe - i freeze mine in 8 oz plastic cups then top

them off with a little water after they are frozen (about the only thing i use

anything plastic for)... then it is so easy to take one out, run some warm water

on it, and use it - i see you like stuff hot!  I'm right with ya.

 

I don't see much 'chat' on this group, so I don't say much, but for those who

don't know me from other groups, I'm Pete from WV USA *waves*

 

Have a great weekend
