I made salsa verde yesterday. I think it looks very pretty in the jars. Don't let the pale green colour fool you. This salsa has plenty of zip to it!
Tomatoes - Here's yesterday's harvest. The larger pinky red tomato is a brandywine. The smaller round red tomato below the brandywine is an unknown variety that just popped up. There must have been a couple of tomato seeds in the compost and one grew so I left it. I picked several green romas to make salsa verde but also because our first frost date is looming close. The tomatoes aren't ripening as fast with the cooler overnight temps. I also have a problem with a tree rat that likes to munch on the smaller green tomatoes 🙁 The green leafy stuff is mint. http://tinypic.com/e5ikpx.jpg
Salsa verde in jars - I ended up with 7 - 250 ml jars. It will make a pretty addition to my canning rack. http://tinypic.com/e5ilas.jpg
