A much nicer idea than the one shown. It would bring out the natural sweetness of the tomatoes and peppers and reduce both acidity and the raw edge of the onions. But what the hell do you use the stuff for afterward? It doesn’t seem very appealing to me.

Great use for green tomatoes! In Texas where I grew up, we grew tomatillos and jalapeño peppers for salsa verde. In my garden in Wisconsin, we made a green pasta sauce out of green tomatoes, bell peppers, fresh basil, onions, and fresh oregano. My tomato plants were always loaded with green tomatoes when the first frost killed my tomato and pepper plants!

recipe is above in the comments. Here is the instructions from The Ball Canning book for the Salsa Verde listed in the above comments. -In large stainless steel saucepan, combine tomatoes,peppers,onions,garlic and lime juice. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Stir in cilantro,cumin,oregano,salt and black pepper. Reduce heat and boil gently, stirring frequently, for 5 mins. Remove from heat. - ladle hot salsa into hot jars, leaving 1/2 inch (1 cm) headspace. Wipe rim, center lid on jar. Screw band down until resistance is met, the increased saw to fingertip-tight. - place jars in canner, ensure they are completely covered with water, bring to a boil and process both 8-ounce(250ml) and pint(500ml) jars for 20 minutes: remove canner lid. Wait 5 minutes, then remove jars, cool and store.

This is one of the best recipes. I want to assure everyone that it also tastes wonderful without cilantro. In our family, I double the garlic and use the full amount of peppers (a mix of jalapenos (red and green). It makes a wonderful chicken enchilada casserole too. (My husband detests cilantro, he says it tastes like soap to him and I understand that is genetic with about 20% of the population.)

To think that I got along with just a good chef's knife (still have it), a pot and cast iron pan, cutting board and a big wooden spoon. Got fancy a lot later with a paring knife and a Dutch oven.

@@paulamcclellan8413 Or, cook a pot roast (slow cooker) with a little bit (1/4 c) water until 3/4 done, then dump about 1" worth of green salsa around it and let the roast finish cooking in the salsa. Shred meat, if desired, and serve as open faced roast beef sandwich.

You are so sweet and just amazing. Thank you for sharing these videos. Great help!

Hi Miss Sarah, enjoyed your video. Have a little trick for your ripening tomatoes and storage after the summer harvest. If you have room in a cool area rip out your plants and hang them upside down this will allow ripening on the vine at a slower rate. And in about a month they can still be picked off the vine. When all your tomatoes are picked put the left overs into the composter and get them ready for next year.

[@emilym155]

larry Lucas I tried this and the tomatoes started to shrivel/go soft?!?

You are so pretty with your natural highlights around your ears thank you for sharing

[@gabrielesotelo3254]

When I had lots of green tomatoes, I made a raspberry jam with them. You use 4 cups of green tomatoes blended, 4 cups of sugar , and bring it to a boil , then simmer for 1 hour . Than you add 2 packages of raspberry jello , simmer for 30 minutes . That’s it and can. Sooo yummy

[@cathyknight7981]

Fried green tomatoes are so good try frying them add lemon pepper salsa good too thank you

[@gksweetmimi]

I sterilize my jars in the oven. The way you cooked the green tomatoes is fine, because they continue to cook in the jar while cooling. I never use the canning pot ever. I find no need for it. It makes things complicated. I have a trick I got from my mother-in-law, the way she cans in Europe and it has never failed me. You might think it weird but it works. After filling all the jars, they are placed upside down, over night till completely cooled. And thats it. Each lid will be vacumed and ready for the pantry.

[@deathnrosary]

Oooh i like this idea. TEACH me the way. Lol.

[@sdelli948]

I work with a sauce and seasoning company that's similar to how we do our products.

[@jeansintheyard]

I have seen jelly done that way. I'm guessing that any item you could water bath would work fine that way. Curious though if your MIL substitutes preassure canning successfully?

[@notyourfriend5899]

That’s how my grandmother used to can. I’ve done it twice with cowboy candy jalapeños.

[@jolayemimochoge1746]

That’s how I learned to can when we lived in South Africa!

[@tammyc1903]

I haven’t thought about it until now, but we love love love tomato gravy and biscuits. Green tomato gravy was a real treat growing up. I think next year I’ll Ill can some green tomatoes for gravy! Watching all these KZbin videos have me getting so industrious. I’m working on a cold frame now to start my plants.

[@Bashfuldoc]

My face fell when you said no fried green tomatoes!!! Dredge the slices of tomato in a mix of flour/salt/black pepper; fry in a tsp. of oil until browned on both sides then put mayo on white bread and a layer of fried green tomatoes -- they are heavenly tart and sooo wonderful. I love whole grain bread, but it is too flavorful for this sandwich.

[@denisecaldwell5741]

She not saying she can't grow tomatillos

[@TransylvanianRedneck]

Here in Transylvania we make pickled green tomaatoos..my favorite and my grandma she was use make jam from green tomatos too. God rest her in peace .. ..yummy sauce ..I will try make too this 😊thank you for sharing

What kind of chopper is that your using that would make my wife's day chopping onions and peppers.

[@thegreymarchhair564]

It's called Vidalia chop wizard I have one and it's fantastic

[@rfree9467]

Found the same thing at WalMart for about $13?

[@Jomama02]

@@rfree9467 the types at Walmart are not as good. I recommend the Vidalia chop wizard. It's well made and works very well.

Wow fresh vege it gives fresh healthy life thanks ma'am of sharing how to do

You should try dill green tomato pickles, they are great!!!!

I've never been a pickle fan but my mom use to make these freezer pickles ..omg..they were the best

[@Forestgump12able]

Hey friend, i just saw a smile come up on your momma,s face when you said what you said.

[@jamyedowell245]

Oh man... I forgot about pickled green tomatoes and onions. Grandpa used to take us to the fish fry on Saturday nights and there was always a jar on every table! Didn't care for it until I was an adult.

[@karenwalker4764]

surender4ify would love that recipe I have a lot of green tomatoes

[@YolklahomaRocks]

I have followed and love this channel! We cleared the tomato plants out yesterday & have a lot of green tomatoes! I grabbed my canning book to confirm I had all the ingredients. So excited until I read that the tomatoes also needed to be peeled. I didn't catch that you didn't peel them at first. I guess maybe I am used to seeing you peel tomatoes and missed it. I will peel mine to be safely canned according to our (yours & mine) favorite canning book.
