OT: salsa making/freezing

Hey all, Farmer Sharon here......

I have been looking up salsa and pico de gallo recipes. Yes, we are at that point with the garden. I can make tomato sauce too and will. But that takes more tomatoes than fresh salsa. I even found a fresh salsa type recipe that uses cherry tomatoes. This is very good as I am picking a quart of those a day now and they are blooming like mad!!

Have any of you ever frozen salsa? Does it do alright? I know it will be softer than the fresh made stuff. That's OK. It will be more like the jar stuff. And that's fine. But any other problems with freezing it?

Yes, I will be making a lot once I decide on a recipe we like. Roma tomatoes are coming on like crazy now too.

I'll be making pesto today. :) That freezes really well. I already have some in the freezer from this year. Have to make some today as the basil was getting scary huge. ;)

Thanks for any tips.

Sooner or later I'll get back in the sewing room......

Sharon

I would think Salsa would do better canned than frozen.

salsa has to be pressure canned, & it tastes 'cooked', which is fine if you like that. salsa can be frozen, but i think there were some caveats... i'll have to check my recipes, or Sharon might try rec.food.preserving. very nice folks on that group. lee
